Copper & Silver Half-Breed Nugget Quincy Mill Mason, Michigan,...
Copper & Silver Half-Breed Nugget Quincy Mill Mason, Michigan, USA 1.04 x 0.72 x 0.43 inches (2.65 x 1.82 x 1.09 cm) The term "Half-Breed," in the context of Michigan minerals, is used for ores of native Copper and Silver that feature the two metals mixed together into a pinto-like pattern. This creates a lovely spotted effect, with a contrast between the bright grey of the Silver and the rich bronze hue of the Copper. This is an exceptional specimen with a lot of visual appeal.
