Cuprite-coated Copper xls (classic Bisbee)

Item Description

A sculptural and showy, two-sided miniature specimen from the less well-known and lower output Dallas Mine at Bisbee. A dramatic, christmas tree-like cluster of very sharp, lustrous, tetrahexahedral and spinel-twinned copper crystals with a rich patina from cuprite coating is elegantly perched atop matrix. Older and seldom available material from this locale.
