Lustrous royal blue Azurite crystal with a nearly text-book form proudly juts out from its matrix. Excellent luster on this one, I cannot stress this point enough! Minor Malachite for some contrast near the bottom as well. The Milpillas mine will go down in history as one of the best Azurite localities in the world, if not THE best. There are many who say Tsumeb will always reign supreme, but that’s not without bias on my part. This is an exciting colorful piece for anyone! VERY displayable, as you can see!
