Item Description

A rich, hefty and sculptural large polished halfbreed slab of massive copper and silver from Copper Country. The copper glows with brilliant golden-coppery color and the bright metallic silver is a super contrast. This is not smelter run material, as the copper and silver are fringed by areas of glassy, translucent, green copper-tinted datolite on both sides. Rich and very showy ore at 260 grams mass. Seldom available in this size and quality, with any beauty to them - this is really quite unusual!
