Description

This is the last of three azurite specimens from a new find from the Boomerang Mine area, once again the crystals are sharp lustrous dark blue and the azurite crystals in this specimen have formed a tulip like rosette, with the largest crystals in the rosette being 1.8cm across.

At this time I am uncertain if more specimens will come to light
