Description/Interesting Notes:
An amazing, old time example of native copper from the Urals!!! This old, 19th century specimen hosts an incredible showing
of native copper crystals on matrix!!! The native copper crystals are present as discreet, octahedral crystals richly
distributed across the face of the specimen!!! There is some cuprite present on the specimen as well and it is
conceivable that these razor-sharp octahedral crystals are possible copper pseudomorphs after cuprite!!!
The crystals are simply outstanding, and quite unique, for native copper!!! There are numerous crystals that
stand alone as isolated octahedral crystals prominently perched on the matrix!!! This is truly an outstanding and
utterly unique old time specimen!!! This specimen retains an old, 19th century label as well!!!
The pics don't even come close to doing this specimen justice!!! Truly remarkable upon close inspection!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!! Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
