Fine quality tabular Azurite crystal on matrix of glassy colorless Barite crystals with spherical Malachite, which is characteristic of specimens from the Volborthite zone or pocket. The crystal glows translucent blue when backlit. A highly aesthetic full thumbnail that I've owned for many years, selected from hundreds of specimens after the April 2015 Volborthite find. Complete all around and undamaged.
