A fine specimen consisting of rosettes of multi-hued, prismatic azurite blades aesthetically set in gossan matrix. The azurites have matte luster and rich color. Rarely do you find these crystal clusters on matrix. A very fine specimen, especially for this uncommon New Mexico locale. Undoubtedly old material, but no proof. Ex. Tarnowski Collection.
