Azurite, Malachite 1 - Sepon Mine, Laos

Deep royal blue and sparkly Azurite from Sepon Mine in Laos is loaded with malachite.     Glittery and richly colored all the way around; this would make a dramatic cabinet specimen.  Azurite specimens from Laos are difficult to obtain due to the location and inaccessibility of the Sepon Mine itself.  

Often described as the finest Azurite found - I was thrilled to actually purchase some of these fabulous specimens.  Incredible flash and sparkle - so much prettier than it appears in the photos.
