Azurite with Calcite

Unknown Owner
A very aesthetic example of this association from the world famous Tsumeb mine. The calcites have good luster and are in great shape. The azurite is lustrous with a wonderful termination. The color contrast on this specimen is quite dramatic. A great specimen to add to any collection.
