Malachite-Azurite on Fluorite from Aouli, Mibladen, Midelt

Colorful combination of Malachite-Azurite covering Fluorite. From this locality a few not that bad yellow Fluorites have come onto the market from time to time. But once in a while they are covered by Malachite-Azurite, as this case, and even more exceptionally, the whole specimen is as esthetic as this one.
