Thumbnail, 2.8 x 1.8 x 1.3 cm
SOLD
A sharp cluster of about 2 cm perched on a stalk makes this an excellent competition level thumbnail for this rare pseudomorph, featuring chrysocolla that replaced malachite, the malachite having replaced a previous generation of azurite itself. Rare now, these are Aussie classics hard to find in this quality today. Ex. Charlie Key.
