This impressive large cabinet specimen looks just like a stylized Chinese dragon. The head with elongated snout and comb, sinuous body and tail are comprised of fairly sharp copper crystals with a nice patina. The embedded chlorite-rich matrix fragments are a very nice accent to this superb, two-sided piece. This is classic, old-time, Michigan Copper Country material from the Dennis Mullane Collection. The specimen has been sprayed with krylon as a preservative.
