azurite sun, mineral specimen For Sale

azurite sun, malbunka copper mine, areyonga, NT, Australia. 160*120*30 mm. These have been mined since the 80\'s. The deposit is now nearing its ending, so its worthwhile to grab one of these Aussie classics before the mine closes and the price goes up. The occur as flattened discs in a white kaolinite matrix, and are prepped to showcase the bright blue azurite suns to their best. This one has scattered suns to 10mm forming a large display plate . Good separation in the suns adds to the wow factor. My American friends call these the squashed blueberry azurites.
