Azurite “Rose” with minor Malachite

Excellent very large and 3-dimensional azurite crystal “rose” from the major finds over 25 years ago at the famous Shilu Mine, Yangchun Co., Yangjiang, Guangdong, China. More 3-dimensional and sharper crystals than most of these have, with great color and good form. A Chinese mineral classic not commonly seen in the marketplace these days. Mark Cross photo.
