Azurite with Malachite and Chrysocolla Cornwall Mines, Cornwall, Lebanon Co., Pennsylvania 8.5cm x 4.16cm x 4.04cm Ex. Dr. John W. Ward Collection #289

Description/Interesting Notes: An incredible example of azurite and malachite with chrysocolla from Cornwall, Pennsylvania!!! A killer old time classic!!! This specimen was in the collection of Dr. John Ward (b.1840)!!! This specimen consists of a mass of blue azurite accented by malachite and areas of crystalline azurite!!! In addition, there are several areas of INTENSE blue chrysocholla!!! At first, I thought this chrysocolla was chalcanthite, because it had such significant translucence and was so intensely colorful!!! However, it is most certainly not water soluble chalcanthite!!! Truly incredible material indeed!!! There are also areas on the specimen that appear superficially similar to cyanotrichite and carbonate-cyanotrichite when they are compressed!!! This specimen is way better than the pictures show!!! An amazing Pennsylvania treasure indeed!!! Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!! STAY TUNED!!!
