An old-time Bisbee azurite specimen. One side has been polished to bring out the stunning "electric blue" banding in the midnight-blue azurite found in few Bisbee azurites. The unpolished matrix backside reveals numerous, small vugs with tiny, lustrous, azurite crystals. This Mullane Collection specimen was exhibited at the Tucson Show in the 1960s.
