The specimen has malachite included baryte deposited onto a thin cast like matrix of malachite. The baryte has thin elongate tabular crystals standing on end in a compact outcrop. The largest crystal measures 2cm. Many of the baryte are clear and lustrous, some of them with inclusions of malachite phantoms. Overall a very cute specimen.
