Copper 'Skull' (Ref: T717)
Keeweenaw Peninsula, Michigan, USA
120mm x 80mm x 80mm
minID: KU3-7CH
Large, exceptional Copper 'Skull', a cast of Copper formed when Copper coats a rounded nodule in a conglomerate with the nodule later eroding awayleaving the "skull'. This one is both good sized and exceptionally well formed (complete) and preserved. Many get smashed or dented or are only partial
hemispheres. I'd say this one has about 80% coverage of what was the former nodule.
