Gem Azurite crystals to 1.5cm on a Malachite covered gossan matrix. Found in the 1950s, these old Azurites are some of the most transparent ever found. Some are partially altered to Malachite on their lower halves. This specimen has larger than average sized crystals as most (when you can find them) have sub-1cm sized crystals. There are some broken crystals but most are good. Great old piece and rare to find now.
