The deep blue color creates a strong contrast with the lighter rock and is the most striking feature of the specimen. <\/p>\n<p data-start=\"552\" data-end=\"810\">Measuring 5.5 \u00d7 4.5 \u00d7 4.0 cm and weighing 105.5 g, this is a small cabinet specimen. The Azurite crystals are concentrated on one side of the matrix, where they form a densely intergrown, three-dimensional crystal group. <\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"1sdx3y\" data-start=\"812\" data-end=\"864\">Dark blue Azurite crystals with noticeable luster<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"866\" data-end=\"1049\">The Azurite crystals show an intense dark blue coloration and are opaque. Their crystal faces display a noticeable luster that further emphasizes the strong color. <\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1051\" data-end=\"1287\">The crystals are predominantly elongated to sword-shaped and densely intergrown. Several larger crystals project clearly from the group and stand out well against the lighter matrix. <\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1289\" data-end=\"1471\">The combination of strong color, elongated crystal form and pale matrix gives the specimen a distinct and highly contrasting appearance despite the concentrated crystalization.<\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"m5v3ql\" data-start=\"1473\" data-end=\"1509\">Azurite from Kerrouchen, Morocco<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1511\" data-end=\"1697\">Kerrouchen in Morocco is a well-known locality for Azurite, especially for intensely blue crystals that are often elongated to sword-shaped and occur on pale matrix.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1699\" data-end=\"1927\">This specimen displays that characteristic locality appearance very well. Particularly distinctive are the dark blue color, the elongated crystals and the strong contrast with the beige to brownish matrix. <\/p>\n<div class=\"group TyagGW_tableContainer\">\n<div class=\"TyagGW_tableWrapper flex flex-col-reverse w-fit\" tabindex=\"-1\">\n<table class=\"w-fit min-w-(--thread-content-width)\" data-start=\"1952\" data-end=\"2435\">\n<thead data-start=\"1952\" data-end=\"1973\">\n<tr data-start=\"1952\" data-end=\"1973\">\n<th class=\"last:pe-10\" data-start=\"1952\" data-end=\"1962\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Feature<\/th>\n<th class=\"last:pe-10\" data-start=\"1962\" data-end=\"1973\" data-col-size=\"md\">Details<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody data-start=\"1984\" data-end=\"2435\">\n<tr data-start=\"1984\" data-end=\"2004\">\n<td data-start=\"1984\" data-end=\"1994\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Mineral<\/td>\n<td data-start=\"1994\" data-end=\"2004\" data-col-size=\"md\">Azurite<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"2005\" data-end=\"2038\">\n<td data-start=\"2005\" data-end=\"2015\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Locality<\/td>\n<td data-start=\"2015\" data-end=\"2038\" data-col-size=\"md\">Kerrouchen, Morocco<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"2039\" data-end=\"2075\">\n<td data-start=\"2039\" data-end=\"2053\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Dimensions<\/td>\n<td data-start=\"2053\" data-end=\"2075\" data-col-size=\"md\">5.5 \u00d7 4.5 \u00d7 4.0 cm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"2076\" data-end=\"2097\">\n<td data-start=\"2076\" data-end=\"2086\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Weight<\/td>\n<td data-start=\"2086\" data-end=\"2097\" data-col-size=\"md\">105.5 g<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"2098\" data-end=\"2127\">\n<td data-start=\"2098\" data-end=\"2113\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Size category<\/td>\n<td data-start=\"2113\" data-end=\"2127\" data-col-size=\"md\">Small cabinet specimen<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"2128\" data-end=\"2150\">\n<td data-start=\"2128\" data-end=\"2136\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Color<\/td>\n<td data-start=\"2136\" data-end=\"2150\" data-col-size=\"md\">Dark blue<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"2151\" data-end=\"2173\">\n<td data-start=\"2151\" data-end=\"2165\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Transparency<\/td>\n<td data-start=\"2165\" data-end=\"2173\" data-col-size=\"md\">Opaque<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"2174\" data-end=\"2202\">\n<td data-start=\"2174\" data-end=\"2182\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Luster<\/td>\n<td data-start=\"2182\" data-end=\"2202\" data-col-size=\"md\">Noticeable luster<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"2203\" data-end=\"2248\">\n<td data-start=\"2203\" data-end=\"2218\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Crystal habit<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"md\" data-start=\"2218\" data-end=\"2248\">Elongated to sword-shaped<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"2249\" data-end=\"2305\">\n<td data-start=\"2249\" data-end=\"2269\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Crystal arrangement<\/td>\n<td data-start=\"2269\" data-end=\"2305\" data-col-size=\"md\">Densely intergrown crystal group<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"2306\" data-end=\"2361\">\n<td data-start=\"2306\" data-end=\"2315\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Matrix<\/td>\n<td data-start=\"2315\" data-end=\"2361\" data-col-size=\"md\">Pale beige to brownish matrix<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"2362\" data-end=\"2435\">\n<td data-start=\"2362\" data-end=\"2377\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Special Feature<\/td>\n<td data-start=\"2377\" data-end=\"2435\" data-col-size=\"md\">Intensely dark blue Azurite crystals on pale matrix<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This Azurite specimen from Kerrouchen in Morocco shows a compact group of intensely dark blue Azurite crystals on a pale beige to brownish matrix.
