Item Description

An aesthetic specimen of Malachite pseudomorphs after Azurite from the now famous discovery of 2007 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 several, fine quality, velvety, dark forest-green crystals of Malachite that have altered from Azurite forming a very aesthetic display piece. A very nice small toenail specimen of this well known material.
