A fine cabinet pseudomorph specimen from the Morenci Mine of Arizona. The gossan matrix is covered with malachite pseudomorphs after tiny rosettes of sharp azurite blades on this excellent piece. The scattered iron oxide coating on some of the pseudomorphs is a nice accent. Ex. John Sobolewski Collection.
