Description
A native copper specimen from Dzhezkazgan, Kazakhstan. The piece is coated with a natural reddish-brown patina as the result of oxidation, giving the specimen a rich and attractive appearance. The crystallization is distinctly arborescent near the base and it transitions into a more flattened habit toward the upper part of the specimen. Notice the small fragment of matrix trapped within the flaky copper crystals at the top!
