About this specimen

Yunnan, azurite with quartz at 5.3 cm; a small cabinet piece. Azurite spreads across the face of the slab as a deep blue crust, with a patch of blue-green where it grades into its alteration products and a band of quartz running through the rock underneath.

Azurite is copper carbonate in its deep-blue form; it often alters to malachite, so blue-and-green combinations are the natural pairing.

Quartz is the most collected mineral on earth for good reason: sharp hexagonal prisms, bright terminations and endless variation between localities.

Yunnan is China's most mineralogically diverse province, source of the pyromorphite, azurite and blue aragonite that have become collector favourites.

By size it is small cabinet, 5.3 × 4.9 × 1.5 cm (2.09 × 1.93 × 0.59 in). The specimen is otherwise sold in the condition shown.

Copper mineral: avoid dust, wash hands after handling.
