Floater cluster of Azurite from the famous Chessy mines of France. These mines are long closed and I understand these specimens were found
in the 1800s. This specimen features Malachite after Cuprite in two areas, one a single crystal, and the other a 1.2cm cluster of crystals. There are no points of contact, a complete
floater and undamaged.
