Azurite and Malachite
Bisbee, Warren Mining District, Cochise Co., Arizona, USA
15.2 x 27.9 x 7.62 cm (6 x 11 x 3 in).
This large and unbelievably vibrant azurite and malachite specimen originates from the classic mining town of Bisbee, Arizona. Both the azurite and malachite crystals display a botryoidal habit the size of champagne grapes, providing many visually appealing nooks and crannies across the display face of the specimen. This is an absolute showstopper of a piece that would be at home in any major mineral collection.
