Locality: Malbunka copper Mine, Western Aranda, Ltalaltuma, Australia
Description: PHOTO 9. Azurite specimens have to be wrapped and boxed according to fragility and size to fit in with our modes of transportation. Most of the plastic tray material you see has to be re-boxed in Alice Springs for removalists. A little bit easier than the Rodgerly Mine where the fluorite specimens mostly go back to the USA for preparation. Maureen spends days on wrapping.
