A beautiful, intense blue azurite. Large azurite is rare for this mine, despite its wealth of copper mineralization, and the saturated color of the azurite "balls" found here really rank them highly compared to other locations. This piece is very beautiful, and is mostly complete all around although has some small areas of damage or contact. Joe Budd photos.
