Cuprite with Quartz
specimen number:
1503532
location:
Redruth, Cornwall, England, UK
description:
Deep red sparkling crystals of cuprite averaging 0.2 cm in size quite rich throughout this quartz rich 7.5 x 5.0 x 5.0 cm matrix. Not perfect with some micro-chipping present, still richly crystallized and overall I think in good condition. This does sit nicely by itself for display. Good classic Cornish specimen. Shipping weight: 0.68 pounds. Ex Renaud Vochten collection.
Size: 7.5 x 5.0 x 5.0 cm (small-cabinet)
Collection: Renaud Vochten
