A beautiful Museum size specimen for this Brazilian locality. Rosettes of bladed crystals of what were once azurite measuring to 2.0 cm in diameter, now replaced by green malachite, are scattered throughout this gossan matrix with crystallized green malachite. This is in very good condition. This material was on the market only shortly in the middle to late 1990s.
