Malachite pseudomorphs after Azurites with Cerussite and Arsentsumebite (ex Rob Smith and Bill Pinch Collections)

Item Description

A great association specimen from noted rare species collector, Bill Pinch. This specimen features one, predominant, euhedral, complete, sharp, blocky pseudomorph of Malachite after Azurite protruding from a matrix consisting of additional Malachite pseudomorphs after Azurite plus white/colorless, gemmy, sharp crystals of Cerussite. The final touch to this beauty is some small spherical aggregates of apple-green color Arsentsumebite scattered here and there. You don't see many pieces like this, especially with the highly coveted Arsentsumebite association.
