A broken cap of a blue milk mushroom (Lactarius indigo), turned so that gills are clearly visible. The common name refers to the milky latex that exudes when the mushroom tissue is cut or broken. A widely distributed species, it grows naturally in eastern North America, East Asia, and Central America. It is an edible mushroom, and is sold in rural markets in Mexico, Guatemala, and China.

Velvet Beauty (by cobalt123)
Velvet Beauty
This is the actual name of this magnificent specimen. It is an important piece, one gotten from a private collection and displayed by a vendor at the Tucson Rock and Gem Show. It was found in 1890 at Bisbee, Arizona, long a world-known site for azurite and malachite as well as copper.
HH: Arizona continues to amaze me. It has many secrets.
