Copper, Calcite

Thumbnail, 2.2 x 1.3 x 1.1 cm
SOLD
Quincy Mine copper in calcite specimens are probably the most desirable Michigan Copper Country mineral species and are consequently difficult to obtain in good specimens. This superb thumbnail is stereotypical of the species and locale: a sharp, gemmy calcite scalenohedron with mildly striated faces richly included with copper with a fine patina. Ex. Jaime Bird Collection.
