Item Description

This is a really attractive, robust crystallized Copper specimen from the classic Cole Mine (Cole Shaft) in Bisbee, Arizona. The piece features a multitude of incredibly sharp, well-formed crystals with varying habits including cubes, dodecahedrons, tetrahexahedron and elongated octahedral "Spinel Twins", which measure up to 3.3 cm. The piece is a solid Copper, crystallized everywhere and actually has a base attached at the bottom so it can be displayed easily. One of the finest examples from this locality we've ever had to offer in the auctions, and for the size, it's a highly desirable example from this greatly historic locality in Bisbee.
Ex Les Presmyk specimen. Valued $3,000.
