A few nice my photos images I found:
Smooth Malachite in Macro
Image by cobalt123
Another macro of one of my prized rock collection specimens, this is malachite. In America the cutters and finishers of fine mineral specimens refuse to grind and polish malachite to such a finish, so the dealer I purchased this piece from sends his raw material to India. This section macro is from a much larger rock that is about 10" long and weighs 1/2 pound. This link shows another specimen I have in the way it is normal found and presented.
What's in my bookbag?
