Description/Interesting Notes:
A unique and exceptional example of azurite from Mexico!!! This specimen consists of an unusually elongated, prismatic crystal of
gem azurite perched on a tiny portion of matrix!!! The crystal is complete and undamaged!!! The crystal has sharp, glassy faces and intense deep
royal blue color!!! With adequate lighting this specimen's gemmy clarity can be seen in dramatic display!!! The azurite crystals from this
seldom referenced locality are usually present as clusters of gemmy prismatic blades, however they are usually
somewhat shorth in length, perhaps up to several millimeters at a maximum - however this incredible specimen measures over 2.2cm!!! This
is really a unique and dramatic example of the species!!!
The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!! STAY TUNED!!! MORE AUCTIONS WILL BE ADDED SATURDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 5-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY JULY 7th!!!
