Large specimen of deep blue Shattuckite and blue/green Chrysocolla from a recently discovered deposit located about 20 kilometers east of the Milpillas Mine. Loaded with Shattuckite on all sides and forming spherical clusters in areas. This is the largest, best one of these I've had. This find is only a few years old and it's unclear if more will be found. So far Shattuckite, Plancheite, Ajoite, Dioptase, Conichalcite and Chrysocolla are known from here - there may be additional species present too that will be identified once the deposit is studied further. Valued at $500.
