💙 I just heard from a very reputable source that the Milpillas Mine, which had closed temporarily for COVID-19, is closing permanently and already moving their equipment out. Anyone have more confirmed info? If this is true, the beautiful specimens produced from this world-class Mexican locality may be a lot more difficult to find in the future...💙 (Specimen: Azurite and fibrous Malachite cluster, Milpillas Mine, available on PhenomenalGems.Etsy.com). #milpillasmine #milpillas #mexicanminerals #azurite #malachite #worldclass #crystalcollection #crystallove #minerals #mineralspecimens #mineralsforsale #crystalsforsale #goodvibes #staystrong #phenomenalgems #etsy #etsyshop #etsycrystals https://www.instagram.com/p/CB1R8ONnZbZ/?igshid=tub0a57arnpw

🌌🌿 💙💚 Love this “layer cake” specimen of Azurite, Malachite, and matrix from the famous Milpillas Mine, Mexico! Swipe through photos and see a video of the specimen in action. This is truly a unique piece—this small cluster combines contrasting layers of material, including ultramarine azurite, verdant green malachite, and tan matrix. To me, it looks like a rich dessert or a topographic map, with many contrasting textures and colors. Layers of mini Azurite crystals strike up from between the matrix layers, displaying beautiful structure, minor damage, and the deepest midnight blue color. Many of the crystals in that layer show beautiful alteration from deep blue to green malachite, as the secondary mineral pseudomorphs the original azurite. Contrasting colors and a unique shape make this small specimen truly one of a kind—your chance to own a specimen from this famous mine for a great price! 💚 35 g (1.2 oz), $126 shipped US; dm to claim, or visit it at PhenomenalGems.Etsy.com! 💙 #azurite #malachite #matrix #milpillas #mexico #mexicanbeauty #minerals #rocks #rocksandminerals #mineralspecimen #collection #goodvibes #boho #hippie #naturelovers #crystalhealing #phenomenalgems #etsy #etsyshop #etsycrystals https://www.instagram.com/p/BwsLq2gHD4A/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1q4jjjvoyqn8x
