Item Description

An outstanding polished datolite slice from the Mesnard Mine. Copper inclusions are the most desirable datolite varietal from Copper Country and this striking slab is filled with sculptural copper hues of red, orange and yellow. The yellow copper and green malachite starburst and just a bit of white datolite really add pizzazz to this very rich and choice example. Ex Dean Martalock, Seaman Museum and Robert Nowakowski Collections.
