Azurite, 9.8 cm, Boomerang mine, Gunpowder district, Queensland, Australia; collected August 1972. George Stacey, then a metallurgist at Mt. Isa mine, noticed these specimens in the ore piles and called me. The largest went to the Smithsonian, but George got the best one. George Stacey collection. Photo: Jeff Scovil.
