Found during my formative years of collecting about 1974 on a remote graveled logging road North of the town of Newport Washington in Pend Oreille County on the Washington - Idaho border. This was from an outcrop just off the road. I was there only one time for no more than a couple of hours. I am sure that if I had gone back and spent some real collecting time at the outcrop, I might have come away with much better specimens. As I remember, they were quite easily collected.
Mineral: | Malachite and Azurite |
