Good specimen of hübnerite. The crystal size and the whole aesthetics are remarkable. I know you are an excellent photographer, especially of quartz specimens, as you have clearly demonstrated in this very forum since long ago. But unfortunately I think this photo falls short of meeting your standard, so I encourage you to get a much better picture of that great piece. When you have some leisure time, of course.

Very nice specimen, but are you absolutely sure it is chrysocolla?

Looks like it could well be hemimorphite as that also is commonly found in Arizona.

I am sure it is Chrysocolla. The mine is a copper mine. Thank you very much Bob.
