Description: Chrysocolla Locality: Ray Mine, Scott Mountain area, Mineral Creek District (Ray District), Dripping Spring Mts, Pinal County, Arizona, USA (Locality at mindat.org) Size: 9.3 x 7.4 x 5.5 cm. A most unusual example of this material because usually you get just stalactites loose and broken off, whereas this is basically a whole pocket cavity of small stalactites, spilling out of the protected pocket to drape the outside areas with a thin coating of chrysocolla. Ex. Harold Urish Collection.
