Native (Natural) Copper Nugget, 17.62.10
This beautiful native copper nugget specimen is from the Kaweena Peninsula, Michigan. These specimens are becoming rare. I have only seen a few from one dealer in Michigan that finds, digs, and preserves them himself. It measures about 3.25” x 2”; and weighs pound. Upper Michigan Copper is the Purest in the world! Many of the Copper Country’s long abandoned mines still have tailing piles that contain small amounts of copper. The copper is trapped in the rock and can be found using a metal detector. The piece is then tumbled to remove the host rock revealing the unique nugget shape.
