Item Description

An aesthetic, bouquet-like, cluster of arborescent, spinel-twinned copper crystals strikingly colored by a blue-green, copper oxide coating from a famous German mine in the Bad Ems District. The Bergmannstrost Mine closed in 1922. Classic, old-time material, that looks great from either side. COPPER IS VERY RARE in specimen form, from the locale.
