Description:An unusual specimen that looks like it once was a large, fat azurite crystal, which became hollowed out and then replaced over time with beautiful, fibrous malachite in the cavity. It could just be a natural cavity with some odd, straight-edge contacts that constrained its growth and makes the sides look as if they were crystal faces, though. Unusual Morenci material, in any case!
