Item Description

Striking skeletal features dramatically highlight this classic and sculptural 360-degree floater crystallized copper miniature from the famous extinct New Cornelia Mine at Ajo. The crystals appear to be mostly modified tetrahexahedrons with some spinel-twins. The bright patina and luster of this showy piece indicates that it has been mildly cleaned. The bit of green malachite adds contrast and character. Ex De Natura (Les Presmyk) dealer stock. A fine crystallized native copper from the locale with impressive form.
