Native Copper with Willemite and Calcite Franklin, Franklin Mining District, Sussex Co., New Jersey 4.36cm x 3.35cm x 2.4cm

Description/Interesting Notes: A rich example of native copper from Franklin!!! This specimen consists of a very rich showing of native copper in association with calcite and willemite!!! This specimen is mostly comprised of native copper by weight and the native copper is visible on every side of the specimen!!! The native copper juts out of the matrix in numerous areas and has a lively metallic copper patina!!! There are also many small areas of bright red cuprite coating the native copper!!! There is a significant showing of greenish copper secondaries as well (this specimen had an old handwritten label that noted "rare atacamite" however the presence of atacamite is doubtful)!!! This specimen shows pronounced fluorescence of green (willemite) and red (calcite) under SW UV!!! The pics hardly do this specimen justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
