A truly magnificent miniature of two connected arborescent Native Copper habits from the Onganja mine in the Windhoek District of Namibia, situated on Helen Farm 235 near the hamlet of Seeis. The specimen shows essentially two central stems of Native Copper with spiky chevroned branches to each side. Of added interest are well developed, intergrown and individual dodecahedral Native Copper crystals, all displaying remarkably sharp features. Overall, the specimen is a metallic reddish maroon with a matt lustre. It is without doubt a prize miniature of arborescent, crystallised Native Copper from Ogonja and one which will stand out in any display of top quality miniatures.
