Old Dominion mine was a significant underground copper mine in the Globe Hills Mining District, Gila County, Arizona, discovered in 1874, and in operation until 1957. Despite its rich history specimens of crystallized Native Copper from there are rare, although some small masses have been recovered from dumps in recent years. The size (smaller cabinet) and quality of crystallization seen in this remarkable specimen from Paul Matt is exceptional as is its extremely bright metallic lustre and intense rose-orange colour. The branching crystallized fronds surround and rise up from several rounded pebble-like pieces of massive Quartzite adding a distinctive feature to its appearance. Although no other details are known regarding the history of this fine specimen it does appear based on its richness to be from a historic find, rather than a recent discovery.
