Item Description

A sculptural, mounded matrix combination specimen from this famous mine. Dramatically intergrown sparkly, bubbly malachite botryoids are accented with two patches of starkly contrasting powder-blue chrysocolla. This is an uncommonly artistic and excellent combination specimen for the locale from a small 2001 find.
