Here we have a fine example of an aesthetic, arborscent, bright Copper specimen from one of the most historic and classic mining districts in the United States. A predominant modified octahedral crystal of Copper is flaring upward giving this piece a very impactful and dramatic appearance. A superb thumbnail specimen of this well known material. This piece may have been acid etched out of host rock due to the luster and unique appearance.
