Deep royal blue azurite against rich green malachite is one of the most striking color pairings in the mineral world, and this raw specimen shows both on their original rock.
The two copper minerals form together, and azurite slowly weathers into malachite over time, so a piece like this captures that natural story in one stone. It is a beautiful display specimen for a desk, a bookshelf or a mineral cabinet, and it photographs vividly in natural light. It makes a memorable gift for a collector, a geology lover or anyone who loves blue and green together. This is the exact specimen shown.
The specimen is about 4.5 by 6.5 by 1.5 inches and weighs about 0.72 kilograms.
Azurite is a deep blue copper carbonate mineral, and malachite is its green cousin. They form together in the oxidized zones of copper deposits, and azurite slowly weathers to malachite. Both are soft, about 3.5 to 4 on the Mohs scale.
Stone Meaning: Azurite with malachite is traditionally associated with insight and transformation.
