Item Description
A really nifty, floater specimen of lustrous, brick-red cuprite coating a very aesthetic, arborescent cluster of spinel-twinned copper crystals from the well-known Rio Tinto Mine of Elk County, Nevada. The flattened piece displays beautifully from either side. An excellent, highly crystallized copper from this locale. Ex Dave Stoudt Collection.
