Native Copper Ore Slab Raw Malachite Lapidary Stone 2.5"

Showcase the raw beauty of geology with this captivating Native Copper Ore display slab! This dual-sided collector's piece features a beautifully flat-sliced lapidary front face that reveals an incredibly dense, interwoven pattern of dark coppery metallic inclusions and branching dendritic veins.

Flip the specimen over, and the back is a rugged, completely unpolished, and porous volcanic host rock covered in a rich, natural green copper-carbonate oxidation crust (Malachite patina). It is the perfect piece to illustrate how native metals weather and transform in nature over hundreds of years.

This is a one-of-a-kind stone.
