Azurite and malachite, USA , Bisbee, Czar Mine
8
New Jersey
Azurite rosettes to 1.3 cm on malachite from the 200' level of the Czar Mine at Bisbee, Arizona. Although noted in Arizona VI of the Mineralogical Record as a former Ben Williams piece, I received visual confirmation from Bill Larson that it was not part of the historic Williams lot he obtained.
