here are some pictures from a mine I was in not too long ago near my house...... I am about 600 feet below the surface......db
 

that's some cool crystals
 

thats amazing. is it created since the mine was created, or is that in the rock itself?
 

I love how azurite looks, I hope I can find some nice specimens some time. Here's two pictures I just saw a few minutes ago from a mine in AZ.

Mmmm nice cupreous material for sure. I'm interested in how close you are to the water table. Is the zone you are in supergene or hypogene?
