description:
Clusters of what were once bladed crystals of azurite to 4.5 cm across now replaced by green malachite in coated with chrysocolla set on a brecciated matrix. Small crystals of wulfenite are present, as well as colorless crystallized calcite. In good condition, this is classic material for this locality. Even a nice cluster shows on the backside of the piece.
