8.4 x 5.9 x 4.9 cm. More Bisbee material from collector Dave Stoudt - this a matrix containing veins of blue-green aurichalcite, which appears massive at first glance, but is crystalline upon closer inspection. It is odd to see aurichalcite locked in matrix like this; an old specimen from the classic American locality.
