A unique and unusual old time example of cuprite from Bisbee!!! This specimen consists of a combination of
massive cuprite with intense ruby red cuprite var. chalcotrichite that hosts some scattered fossil shells as well!!!
Such combinations are quite scarce indeed!!! A significant portion of the specimen appears to be comprised of
very dense, solid networks of sparkly, ruby red chalcotrichite!!! Upon close inspection with a loupe or scope
one can see networks of squared-off prismatic crystals!!! There is massive red cuprite present as well and this
material has several fossil shells embedded within it as well!!! There is a lot going on with this specimen and it is
quite handsome in person!!! Old material!!!
The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!! This
specimen is from the collection of Tony Nikischer!!! We just acquired the 6000+ specimen PERSONAL collection of Tony
Nikischer and there are going to be some very exciting minerals to come in the upcoming days and weeks!!!
