New Mexico Mineral Symposium — Abstracts

The Hanover number 2 mine in Fierro, Grant County, New Mexico has, as of late, been the source of a great many small, but fine azurite rosettes.

This occurance is very similar in geologic environment to other localities that have produced similar specimens. Unfortunately, little has been done to document the features that allow the development of this form. The purpose of this discussion is to fill this longstanding void.
