MA50AL5: Azurite with Malachite after Cuprite

Floater rosette of Azurite crystals, with an unusual habit for the deposit, and an unusually bright color, along with an octahedral Malachite pseudomorph after a crystal of Cuprite. The specimen is from the type locality for the species and a magnificent French classic. It comes from an old Spanish collection and with the piece we will deliver the associated collection label.
The specimen has been reviewed, photographed and published in the Russian magazine ‘Mineral Observer’ on page 85 in the volume 26/2021, number 1

SV380EEF: Azurite with Malachite after Cuprite and with Baryte

Small but nice Azurite crystal. A doubly terminated floater, it forms a rosette and bears the 'signature' of the locality, namely a Cuprite crystal pseudomorphed by Malachite. The omnipresent whitish granules of Barite are also there. Chessy is the type locality for Azurite.

SV3240EEJ: Azurite with Malachite after Cuprite and with Baryte

The Azurite is in good condition, the groups of Azurite crystals forming two spheres. With several Cuprite crystals pseudomorphed by Malachite (not very green in this case), they give this combo a high enough level that it can be considered a quality piece for this prolific deposit. The magnificent blue of the Azurite helps. Scattered through the piece are the characteristic granular barytes, almost always reddish due to the presence of iron oxides. Chessy is the type locality for Azurite.

EC47AC0: Azurite with Malachite and Baryte

A novelty at Sainte-Marie-aux-Mines 2015. An aggregate of very sharp flattened crystals that are bright with a very vivid color (even under daylight) that extraordinarily resembles the Milpillas “electric blue”. With the Azurite there are small white Barytes and Malachite aggregates.
From a new find in the Oumjrane area, possibly from some of the old works of this zone, these crystals have a luster and color that is superior to the previously known azurites from Morocco.
