Summary

Description
English: Malachite, Quartz, Chrysocolla
Locality: Inspiration Mine, Miami-Inspiration deposit, Inspiration, Miami-Inspiration District, Globe-Miami District, Gila County, Arizona, USA (Locality at mindat.org)
Size: 15.2 x 13.4 x 6.4 cm.
A BIG specimen of a collector favorite from Arizona. In this case, instead of being on chrysocolla, the sparkly quartz crystals are on a layer of malachite, which is in turn on a layer of chrysocolla. These are usually seen in small specimens, but the area of crystallization here measures 12 cm in length - this is basically a big pocket that was removed intact! This is an old-timer, and hard to find, especially in a specimen this large and rich! Probably 40 years out of the ground, this one.
