Item Description
An attractive specimen of Malachite pseudomorphs after Azurite from the now famous discovery of 2007 at Milpillas. Although there were many of these specimens available a few years ago, fine quality, undamaged display specimens are few and far between. This piece features a few good quality, velvety, dark forest-green crystals of Malachite that have altered from Azurite. Virtually no damage, and the small amount of matrix makes for a nice contract.
