This is a superb and aesthetic specimen of a geode/nodule/septarian of massive, blue azurite giving way to a vug of striking, blue, extremely lustrous azurite crystals, and a spray of acicular, velvety, green, malachite crystals. This is about the most beautiful small specimen I have seen from this locality. 2.8 x 2.1 x 1 cm
