Description

Polished Chrysocolla Slab
Bagdad Copper Mine
Yavapai County
Arizona, USA
3.96 x 2.83 x 0.24 inches (10.05 x 7.20 x 0.61 cm)

Chrysocolla, especially from Arizona, does not need much explanation. When polished into any works of lapidary art, it can be something very special. This rather unique example features swirling patterns of a mild green Malachite, and two large clear "eye" pockets with small crystalline cavities add extra charms.

[Scale: 1 inch, with mark at 1 cm]
