Cluster of deep blue Azurite crystals with a minor amount of Malachite. This is from what is called the Watercourse Pocket of the mine which produced some of the best specimens ever found there. Specimens from this pocket were composed of interlocking, lustrous crystals. Many were detached floaters and most had small needle-like crystals of Malachite attached to one side. This specimen features a 2.4cm main crystal.
