Tall, upright crystals of Malachite after Barite covered with drusy Quartz. The Malachite is tabular and rectangular in shape and clearly visible when backlit. A couple of the crystals are broken off revealing the green Malachite within. This was a one off specimen found in a parcel of Malachite, and I've never seen a similar one.
