Moroccan Classic: Azurite & Malachite ps. after Chalcostibite
A superb miniature of one of Morocco\'s most famous and sought-after pseudomorphs. This specimen features sharp, well-defined blades of the rare copper antimony sulfide Chalcostibite, which have been beautifully replaced by a vibrant mix of Azurite and Malachite.
The preservation of the original crystal habit is exceptional, showing the distinct tabular geometry that made this locality a legend among pseudomorph enthusiasts. With its deep blue saturation and contrasting green velvet malachite, this \"Old Stock\" piece is a textbook example of the complex secondary copper chemistry found at Rhar el Anz.
