Item Description

Michigan copper specimens are a US and worldwide classic and this is a showy and sculptural large specimen. The striking, exceptionally vuggy and hackly with nifty appendages is a coarsely crystallized floater. Scattered spots of green epidote are a nice accent. Any presentation presents a fine and totally different view! It looks like a copper coral reef. Classic, old-time material from the Dartmouth College Collection. 1030 grams or 2.3 pounds.
