Item Description
Most people are familiar with the Copper pseudomorphs after Aragonite from this locality, but to find non-pseudomorphic native Copper is rather rare. This large "sheet" of partially crystalline Copper is a great display from this historic locality. It has a gorgeous patina with spots of minor reddish Cuprite and a few areas with crude Copper crystals exposed. These pieces started to trickle out around October of 2007, and this piece is one of the better samples of this material that we've had to offer.
