Crushed Shattuckite, Azurite, Malachite Sand from China, Small Batch, Medium Sand (0.25mm-2mm) for Woodworking and Ring Inlay, Resin Art, Memorial Jewelry

Azurite and malachite are two minerals that naturally form near large copper ore deposits and are generally found alongside other copper-rich minerals, such as chrysocolla and turquoise. This crushed material consists of deep blue azurite and malachite mixed with minor amounts of shattuckite, chrysocolla, and host rock. This material is from the famous Liufengshan Mine, which is located in Anhui, China. 

This is a very small batch of crushed material and inventory is limited, so make sure to purchase enough material for your project. This material is also a great choice for woodworking projects, since azurite and malachite are relatively soft minerals.

Our medium material is considered to be sand sized (fine sand to very coarse sand), ranging between 0.25 millimeters to 2 millimeters. This size is great for most woodworking inlays, memorial and resin jewelry, orgonite pyramids, ring inlay, resin molds, mosaics, terrariums, bezel cups, resin art, embellishments, and metaphysical projects.
