Watch a video of this specimen by following the Vimeo link below: https://vimeo.com/1118400448/314b4a7071 Here is a very unusual and remarkable quality specimen of azurite from old discoveries in Bou Nahas mine, Oumjrane, displaying lustrous royal blue azurite crystals nested in a quartz geode coated in oxides. Note small brown balls that I assume to be siderite, but that might be a rarer species. Boules sidérite-like et oxydes à analyser Ex coll. C. Vie
