TM69AN2: Copper with Fluorite
Dendritic growth of small Copper crystals with sharp crystal forms and shiny surfaces and with irregular growths of transparent white Fluorite crystals. The specimen is a significant rarity for this mine, which is known for its Fluorites.
Le Burc Mine, Alban-Le Fraysse area, Tarn, Occitanie  France
Specimen size: 9.4 × 7.4 × 6 cm = 3.70” × 2.91” × 2.36”
.
NF14AL4: Copper with Malachite
Very aerial dendritic growth of deformed Copper crystals, totally covered by Malachite. Of good quality for the deposit, where this type of Copper specimen with Malachite is scarce. The Herrerías mines lie in the western sector of the Iberian Pyrite Belt, a major Paleozoic (Devonian–Carboniferous) volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS) province. Mineralization is hosted by volcano-sedimentary sequences, forming stratabound ore bodies and associated stockwork zones, dominated by iron and copper sulfides with subordinate lead and zinc. Variscan deformation and later supergene processes strongly influenced the paragenesis and the development of some secondary minerals.

Specimen size: 5.8 × 2.9 × 0.7 cm = 2.28” × 1.14” × 0.28”
.
EXL14AP3: Copper with Malachite

.
DM12AG3: Copper with Malachite
Fibrous Malachite aggregates with a silky luster coating a scoriaceous native Copper with dendritic growth fringes. We cannot offer to the buyer any more precise data about the locality than just “Arizona”, but possibly it is from the Ray Mine.
Arizona  USA
Specimen size: 10 × 6.8 × 3.7 cm = 3.94” × 2.68” × 1.46”

Main crystal size: 0.6 × 0.2 cm = 0.24” × 0.08”
.
EB13J8: Copper with Malachite and Cuprite
Although they were previously known, we can consider those specimens a novelty. The group is arborescent and coated by secondary copper species (mainly Malachite) and crystals of Cuprite which are small deformed octahedrons.
Oumjrane mining area, Alnif Commune, Tinghir Province, Drâa-Tafilalet Region  Morocco (02/2007)
Specimen size: 11.3 × 10.5 × 5.7 cm = 4.45” × 4.13” × 2.24”
.
SM45EAB: Copper with Quartz
Arborescent and aerial growth of Copper crystals, flat, but more three-dimensional in spots, with well-defined octahedral terminations. On a crystalline Quartz matrix.
Bou Nahas Mine, Oumjrane mining area, Alnif Commune, Tinghir Province, Drâa-Tafilalet Region  Morocco

NFR66AO8: Cuprite with Copper
Dendritic growth of elongated Copper crystals, with the crystal forms of the octahedron and the rhombododecahedron, very balanced and partially covered by plates and cubo-octahedral micro-crystals of Cuprite with translucent reflections of an intense red color. The specimen is both aesthetic and representative of the locality, and comes to us from the collection of Santiago Jiménez García.

SV2170NBR: Gypsum (variety selenite) with Copper inclusions
An iconic piece from Arizona. Gypsum (selenite variety) with small remnants of limonitic matrix embedded in the Gypsum and also on the surface, and with some whitish cloudy areas which highlight inclusions of acicular crystals of Copper in dendritic growths with a very vivid reddish color, all perfectly visible thanks to the transparency of the Gypsum. A pedigreed piece from the Dick Bideaux collection and the Ignacio Gaspar Sintes collection whose labels we will send to the buyer.
Mission Mine, Mission complex, San Xavier, Pima mining district, Sierrita Mountains, Pima County, Arizona  USA
