Item Description

Sculptural, large, 360-degree floater crystallized copper from the famous Ray Mine of Arizona. The aesthetic arborescent piece has an overall spinel-twinned form and consists of spinel-twins, sharp tetrahexahedral crystals and subhedral crystals. The piece has a fine variable coppery patina on both the front and back, that adds character. The Ray Mine is well-known for fine copper specimens and this is an excellent example of the arborescent varietal. See the 1983 article in the Mineralogical Record Arizona-V Special Issue, Vol. 14, No. 5. Ex Taylor Hunt Collection.
