Description

This is a very good azurite specimen from the best find of Lavrion azurite for the past two decades! The color is great and ranges from electric to royal blue! There are bladed crystals that form spherical aggregates and they grown on gossan matrix. Note that until this find in 2012, a 2mm crystal of lavrion azurite was a great size to own! This is unique for Greece and I had the luck to acquire almost all the good pieces of the find. A crazy Greek azurite!
