This is a spectacular display specimen of Cuprite on Crystallized Copper from the Red Dome mine, QLD, Australia. The cuprite crystals are blood red, gem and have great lustre, with many of them being complete. The Copper is a long spinel twin with good crystallization and a lovely curl to the end of it. Whilst its not a huge specimen, the aesthetics and killer combination more than make up for it.
