The recent discovery(3 years ago) of copper specimens from this deposit garnered a lot of interest from collectors. What makes this specimen so great is that it is composed of featherlike, interlocking groups of spinel twinned crystals; along with a wonderful patina and impressive herringbone pattern. This is a very choice miniature! 4.2 x 3 x 0.5cm
