Azurite

Unknown Owner
A lovely specimen consisting of glistening azurite blades on a fibrous botryoidal malachite. The tabular azurite crystals are up to 0.8cm in length. The color and texture contrast of this specimen is quite pleasing. There are some minor scuffs on the malachite but with the age of this specimen it is to be expected. An absolute US classic. Ex. Mel Bersch Mitch Abel 1982
