A fantastic, rare pairing of azurite and marshite from Russia!!! This specimen consists of a bright, royal blue rosette of
bladed azurite crystals that hosts an impressive showing of translucent whitish, marshite richly distributed across its surface!!!
There were just a FEW of these rare combination specimens recovered from this locality!!! This is a showy and striking
rare combo that hosts a rich showing of finely crystallized marshite!!! The azurite has a particularly lively royal blue color and
is present as finely bladed crystals!!! The marshite has grown on the tips of the bladed azurite crystals and is present as
complex networks of lustrous, translucent crystals!!! There is also some unidentified white material present as scattered grains as well!!!
Upon close inspection with a loupe or scope, the areas where the marshite is intergrown with the finely bladed azurite is
quite fascinating indeed (there are microscopic pieces of azurite included within them in some areas)!!! This is truly
an incredible specimen - this is SIGNIFICANT material and there were literally only a few such specimens recovered (and they are all gone now)!!! Don't miss out
on this rare opportunity!!! This specimen is in fantastic condition and displays magnificently in person!!!
The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
