Native Copper

Native Copper is almost pure copper and so is the richest source of this red metal. The specimens illustrated are from obscure metaliferous deposits where the respective mine management have collectively curtailed specimen collection.

The Elura Mine near Cobar, New South Wales produced some of the worlds finest specimens of native silver during the 1980's. Production was prolific and short sighted collectors scoffed at the flats full of specimens that were on offer. Today, nice silver specimens are rare and pieces like this are difficult to obtain. This is an opportunity to buy something probably not represented in your collection.
