An elegant and sculptural specimen of completely crystallized copper from the Itauz Mine, which over the past few years produced copper specimens as good as just about any worldwide. The mine is currently not producing this type; we hope that as the circular strip mining continues, they may come back into a zone that turns out fine specimens such as this one.
