Item Description

A very attractive specimen of Malachite pseudomorphs after Azurite from the famous discovery of 2008 at Milpillas. Although there were many of these specimens available a few years ago, fine quality, undamaged display specimens were few and far between. This specimen hosts good fine quality, velvety, dark forest-green crystals of Malachite that have altered from Azurite forming an aesthetic display piece. A very nice small miniature specimen of this well known material. Crystals measures up to 2.0 cm. Valued at $1000 on the label.
