Size of the Australian azurite nodules approx. 15 - 25mm.
Localities: Malbunka Copper Mine, Gardiner Range, Northern Territory (Australia) - very rare, as the mine is now closed!
The intense blue color is characteristic of the Azurite from this Australian Localities. Due to their mostly flat shape, these azurites are also known as azurite suns.
Mining terms for azurite are mountain blue, copper blue or copper glaze, synonyms are chessylite, glaze stone and, misleadingly, azurmalachite and copper lapis.
