A huge size native copper specimen showing an arborescent growth of deformed crystals. Some of them still show complex cubic forms. Its color is the original and I preferred not alter it by chemical methods. In some of the branches we can see the brilliance of copper, but the rest has this "coppery" tone.
Nowadays the mine is flooded, so get new specimens is quite complicate, if not impossible. A classic mineral specimen from this “Spanish pyrite belt” locality.

Arborescent growth of deformed and flattened native copper crystals. Some of them, smaller ones, still show complex cubic forms. Its color is the original and I preferred not alter it by chemical methods. In some of the branches we can see the brilliance of copper, but the rest has this "coppery" tone. It is disposed very aerial on the rocky matrix.

Laminar growth of deformed and flattened native copper crystals. Its color is the original and I preferred not alter it by chemical methods. In some of the branches we can see the brilliance of copper, but the rest has this "coppery" tone. It is disposed very aerial on the rocky matrix.
