V-shaped pair of Malachite after Azurite crystals. Sharply formed with velvety surface luster. Tsumeb minerals continue to get harder and harder to find as the years go by since the mine was closed. These psuedomorphs of Malachite after Azurite are certainly some of the most classic and characteristic specimens from the mine, this one being a fine example with great color and aesthetics. Original list price was $275.
