Description

Aerial flattened native copper leaf, filling cracks of a metamorphosed matrix. These coppers are found in an area related to basaltic localities and are not well known, so Kondopoga coppers are poorly represented in collections worldwide.

The specimen is part of a lot we acquired from Johann Muizebelt, who got them in 1993 at the Ylamaa Mineral Show (Finland) from a Russian geologist.
