Large branching group of Copper crystals coated by Cuprite. The Cuprite covers most of the surface of the Copper and is crystallized in areas. There is also black Heterogenite, green Malachite, and a blue mineral (Shattuckite ?) present in areas. Large and colorful Copper specimen found in 2018. Was priced at $300 on my website.
