Azurite from Milpillas Mine, Milpillas, Sonora, Mexico

Azurite and Malachite

Milpillas Mine, Milpillas, Sonora, Mexico

3.4 x 5 x 2.7cm

This Azurite specimen is an absolute stunner! It’s electric blue color, just the right amount of Malachite to appear to change colors when viewed from various angles (see video), and a glassy luster so prominent that it can actually reflect objects near it-all make for a superb Milpillas specimen. While Milpillas is known for its beautiful Azurites and electric blue color, this specimen is an outstanding example !!!
