Superb thumbnail sized specimen of Copper psuedomorphs after Cuprite. My favorite specimens from this find and those such as this one with partially psuedomorphed Cuprite along with fully psuedomorphed Cuprite. This specimen is a cluster of about 10 crystals with 3 that retain a good amount of the original Cuprite. Complete all around, floater specimen. One small nick at the top, otherwise undamaged.
