Item Description
A fine and showy specimen of bright, micro-dendritic copper in a transparent gypsum cleavage from the Mission Mine of Arizona. Old and excellent material. In person, looking at the internal meshwork, you can see how mesmerizing this is and why it is such a classic. Ex Bob Trimingham Collection and acquired in 1967 from a mineral shop in Lakeview, Oregon.
