Item Description

Here is a wonderful sharp thumbnail pseudomorph of copper after Aragonite from the famous locality of Corocoro. These floater specimens are well known from Bolivia for their great form. These pieces are some of the most well known and highly sought after pseudomorphs around. It looks just like an old, rusted six-sided steel drum from a drum kit! a nice complement to the similarly sized replacement of copper after azurite from New Mexico, also in this week auctions
