MALACHITE after AZURITE from the Milpillas Mine continues to trickle onto the market as specimens
become available. These are probably the best Malachite pseudos to surface in many years, and it is uncertain
how long they will continue to be available. Some of the specimens below are quite recent finds, brought up
from the mine by Jesus Valenzuela. Some specimens have quite large, blocky crystals to over 3 cm., which are
very large for the locale. Most of the specimens from this mine are found in narrow seams, and it is common for
crystals to have some contacts where the crystals grew against the opposite wall. Consider adding one of these
great pieces while they are available and affordable.
