Description:An outstanding spinel-twinned copper crystal from the approximately 2006 finds at the Chino Mine. This is a classic, larger, floater spearpoint with three distinctive grooves, sharp crystallization and fine form. The pretty copper patina is the result of mild cleaning. Very fine material for the size and noted locale. We unearthed a few of these in our recent move. The material is not longer on the market. Valued at $600-800.
