A sculptural, two-sided cabinet specimen of a showy, well-placed and rich bed of sharp copper crystals with a nice patina associated with copper pseudomorphs after cuprite crystals and matrix. The dendritic, copper appendages are fascinating. This excellent piece is from the less well-known Dallas Shaft at Bisbee. Ex. Dave Stoudt Collection.
