MAZ11 Azurite with Malachite
Milpillas Mine, Cuitaca, Sonora, Mexico
4.8x 2.5x 3.6 cm
$685
A great example of azurite from Milpillas, consisting of a group of azurite crystals with eautifully contrasting malachite. The azurite crystals themselves have top luster, and with minor lighting exhibit the best "electric" blue color.
Milpillas started producing around 2006, and finally closed in the summer of 2020. These come from a pocket discovered around 2013-14, they were part of a stash that was just released. I had the good fortune of high grading it, and am offering my favorite pieces here.
