The following specimens are all azurite from Toussit.  I visited well over a dozen dealers from Morocco and after plowing through well over 2000 specimens could only find these that were not in some way damaged.  These are all choice lustrous specimens of azurite - most would be considered gemmy as light travels easily through to reveal the deep azure blue color.
