Native Copper w/ Quartz (classic locale)

Item Description

This sculptural native copper specimen looks like a 4-legged animal with uplifted head and a strange curved snout! The piece is coarsely crystallized and has impressions of long-gone crystals. Green tinted quartz and a bit of greenstone matrix enhances the color variability and adds pizzazz. This showy piece is from recent collecting efforts at the Caledonia Mine and has been cleaned to bring out the beautiful bright patina.
