Attractive blue crystallized plancheite, these appearing to be coating or forming replacements after small scalenohedral crystals of calcite, set on matrix. Colorless scalenohedral crystals of calcite measuring to 4.3 cm in size are present as well. Some cleaving present to the calcite crystal as seen. Malachite is present as well. Neat combination specimen.
