Translucent, tabular Azurite crystals from the Volborthite zone. The 'backbone' of the specimen is a large single
crystal 2.3cm wide that is complete all around and undamaged. There is a crystal grown into the top of the main crystal that has edge damage,
otherwise all other crystals are also undamaged. Milpillas is already considered
the best Azurite locality in the world. While crystals are currently abundant,
now is the time to get a good one before supplies dry up.
