This specimen is remarkable for several reasons. The color is a wonderful aquamarine blue, from the cryptocrystalline core to the surface of the specimen. There was a secondary growth of azurite, in crystals to 2.5 cm across, which was later pseudomorphed by sparkling quartz druse. In spite of minor damage to the largest crystal, this piece is rare and exquisite.
