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 is primarily a fine clusrter of Azurite but has one small attached crystal of Malachite after Cuprite. There are no points of contact, a complete floater and undamaged.
