Item Description

Extraordinarily super sharp, lozenge-shaped, doubly terminated partially pseudomorphed by malachite azurite crystals compose this remarkable sculptural miniature from the now-famous Milpillas Mine. The striking highly lustrous azurites, to 2.0 cm, have hues from midnight-blue to navy-blue to gorgeous electric-blue. This is an outstanding and excellent partial pseudomorph with uncommon extremely sharp crystals from the locale. Get an outstanding example of this varietal, while you can, as the oxide zone has been mined through.
