Item Description

This is a classic example, of a very rare copper mineral - a well formed pseudomorph of copper after twinned aragonite. Singles are common enough but anything in cluster or matrix should be considered a 1 in 1000 find. The 1.6 cm in length pseudo exhibits a rich, classical copper color and somewhat resembles a top hat sitting on fabric, on this unusual matrix specimen. You ALMOST NEVER see them on matrix! Very rare! Ken Roberts Pseudomorph collection, which featured refined, aesthetic, perfect pseudo specimens of uncommon quality. Valued ???
