These minerals get around. This specimen I purchased several years ago from the Devon Polak collection acquired in Canada and then sold to Bill McConlogue in Washington. It is now back in South Dakota and will be going to some distant place I hope. It is a thick tabular, metallic grey crystal with surfacial alterations to Malachite and Azurite.
