Item Description

An exceptionally aesthetic and sculptural, crystallized copper specimen from the famous Ray Mine and the Sal Avella Copper Collection. Ray is renowned for world-class spinel-twins, but the "branches" of this very arborescent specimen are crowned with numerous, super-sharp, tetrahexahedral crystals with a beautiful patina. A very high quality and rare varietal from this noted locale. Valued at $300
