Item Description
The famous specimens from the Milpillas Mine will do down as true classics, and most notably among the finest Azurites ever found. This piece is a gorgeous display specimen featuring a beautiful group of rich blue colored bladed crystals measuring 1.4 cm at its longest dimension, aesthetically perched atop beautiful vivid green Malachite, coating the underlying matrix. No damage, and the combination of the Azurite on the Malachite is quite striking.
From the collection of David E Ziga, a geologist who graduated Miami (of Ohio) University in 2017, with a mineralogy background.
