Thick, robust Copper crystals with 3 areas of attached Cuprite crystals. These Cuprite on Copper specimens were one of the more interesting new finds at Tucson this year. While there was a good number of Copper specimens available, there was only very few with the Cuprite association. There are also unidentified white crystals associated with the Cuprite, 4.5 x 3 x 2.8 cm.
