Azurite

A lovely small miniature specimen with wonderful contrast between the deep blue azurite and snowy-white bladed baryte. This alpine locality is known for its aesthetic combinations of copper minerals (azurite, malachite, tyrolite, etc) turning modest species like dolomite, baryte and calcite into very colourful and attractive specimens.
