An AESTHETIC, very lightweight, filigree-like copper specimen consisting of arborescent, spinel-twinned and and very sharp octohedral copper crystals from the famous Emke Mine at Onganja, Namibia. This is a pristine, floater specimen and is one of the most artistic Emke Mine coppers, that I have seen. Part of the piece is covered with cuprite. 4.2 x 2.8 x 1.3 cm
