✅ SOLVED Chunk of Azurite with chrysocolla

[Steve1236]

Found this pretty little chunk of azurite and chrysocolla, it's only about two inches thick but pretty sturdy so I dont know if I should cut it for cabochons or leave it the way it is. What would you do?🤷‍♂️

Very nice! Some of that you have to stabilize To cut, but that would be a killer!

Very nice! I would most certainly keep it as is.

It's not wise to cut Azurite. It's much too soft and crumbly and will most likely disintegrate during or after cutting.

The "Azurite" you see being marketed as cabochons is vacuum injected with epoxy resin before cutting. They are mostly plastic.
