{"product_id":"native-copper-269","title":"NATIVE COPPER","description":"The copper mine at Bou Nahas in Oumjrane mining area, Drâa-Tafilalet Region, Morocco opened in around 2014 and in the first few years excellent examples of crystallized Native Copper specimens reached the mineral market. This unusually shaped specimen - like a necklace or ancient torc - dates to 2015. Predominantly crystallized Native Copper, but with white inclusions of Quartz, the Native Copper crystals are extremely sharp elongated octahedra and reach 5 mm in length. These crystals are developed in dendritic and fan-like patterns but despite showing the classic metallic copper-orange colour are a little dull in their lustre. Nevertheless, this is a very fine example from this limited find and stands well in size (small cabinet) compared with most specimens that came out. Ex Nick Hawes collection.","brand":"Crystal Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57781384184143,"sku":"CC48566","price":500.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1011\/3748\/2063\/files\/CC48566.jpg?v=1779761033","url":"https:\/\/crystalclassics.co.uk\/products\/native-copper-269","provider":"Crystal Classics UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
