Azurite
Milpillas Mine, Santa Cruz Mun., Sonora, Mexico
4.5 x 4.4 x 2 cm
The “Watercourse Pocket” at Milpillas produced some of the funkiest Azurite floaters of anywhere. When positioned upright, this specimen looks Mickey Mouse, but is in fact a piece of geological art.. A true floater with no point of contact anywhere, this sculptural piece has great luster, color, and form. Ex. Dave Stoudt
