Chrysocolla after Malachite after Azurite with Wulfenite, Goethite.
Whim Creek Copper Mine, Whim Creek, Roebourne Shire
Western Australia, Australia
11.7 x 6.3 x 4.6 CM (cabinet)
price: $780
Late Summer 2021

Crystallized Azurite rosettes replaced by Malachite which is partly to fully replaced by Chrysocolla. A modern classic find from Whim Creek, this is an especially choice specimen with a stout stalactitic Goethite matrix. A few small Wulfenite crystals are also noted on the matrix as are more recent tiny balls of Malachite. In fine condition. The rosettes vary in color from blue-green to green and are in both clusters and isolated balls. All the rosettes display very good crystal forms that faithfully show the original Azurite structures. These were found over 30 years ago and often in cabinet sized specimens. A modern classic.
