About La Sal Azurite
La Sal Azurite, sourced from the La Sal Mountains in Utah, is renowned for its deep azure-blue hue and distinctive crystal formations. This mineral, a copper carbonate, often presents as rosettes—flower-like clusters of tabular crystals—making it highly sought after by collectors. Historically, azurite from this region has been utilized as a pigment, with evidence of its use in ancient Anasazi ruins and petroglyphs. The unique geological conditions of the La Sal area contribute to the formation of these exceptional azurite specimens, which are frequently found alongside malachite, adding to their visual appeal.
