Native copper, macrophotograph
Native copper. Native copper is copper found naturally in a pure (chemically uncombined) state. Native copper deposits are now almost depleted and most mining concentrates on copper-containing minerals. Copper is a soft, dense, ductile and malleable metal, that forms the base for alloys such as bronze and brass. It is also an excellent conductor and is used for electrical wiring. This sample was found in Michigan, USA. Object size approx. 10mm

EDITORS COMMENTS
This macrophotograph showcases a stunning print of native copper, a rare and precious metal found in its purest form. Native copper deposits, once abundant, have now been nearly exhausted, leading mining efforts to focus on copper-containing minerals instead. Renowned for its softness, density, ductility, and malleability, copper serves as the foundation for renowned alloys like bronze and brass. Its exceptional conductivity also renders it indispensable in electrical wiring applications. The featured sample hails from Michigan's bountiful reserves in the United States. With an approximate size of 10mm, this exquisite piece exhibits the raw beauty inherent to native copper. Alfred Pasieka's skillful capture allows us to appreciate every intricate detail of this geological wonder. Beyond its aesthetic allure lies the significance of this photograph within the realms of geography and earth science. It symbolizes not only our planet's rich resources but also highlights how human activities impact natural formations over time. Let this mesmerizing image serve as a reminder that while native copper deposits may be dwindling globally due to extensive extraction processes, their legacy endures through scientific exploration and appreciation for Earth's geological wonders.
