Item Description

A gorgeous multicolor specimen of the classic material from the Inspiration pit featuring drusy colorless Quartz which is coating radial groups of stark blue Chrysocolla and green Malachite. The piece shows minor Tenorite as well. The specimen has a few saw marks on the back where it must have been trimmed down. There is a Kay Robertson number on the back of the piece (#2566), but no label unfortunately. CLASSIC material from Arizona.
