A beautiful pocket of chrysocolla forming little rounded stalactites that have been covered by a thin layer of sparkling quartz druse. The quartz protects the softer chrysocolla underneath and also accentuates the color and richness of the piece - these are the most desired of the chrysocolla specimens from this classic old locality. This is an excellent piece for the overall form and size, and the top color intensity. Ex. Harold Urish Collection.
