Fine specimen of deep blue crystals of Veszelyite on sky blue Hemimorphite. The Veszelyite crystals reach 4mm in size almost completely cover the Hemimorphite, though some 'fingers' of Hemimorphite stick up through the veszelyite. The locality is a former Limestone quarry with Lead, Zinc, and Copper mineralization that closed in 2018.
