Crystalized Copper

One of the most beautiful metals with its gorgeous fox orange sheen that oxidizes the notorious blue green we see on the Statue of Liberty. Just like Gold and Silver, Copper is also not made on Earth through typical geological processes. Instead Copper is also created by the death of exploding stars, also called supernovae which were brought to earth in its early days of formation when it was bombarded by Copper carrying asteroids

Now metals in general are actually a type of crystal, they have polycrystalline structures which are many small crystals bound together caused by imperfect or faster cooling times when it was hot from the heat and pressure of earth underground. This gives metals unique properties like malleability. However given proper cooling, heat and pressure they will have time to create a uniform crystal structure creating crystal Copper! Which is significantly more rare then standard Copper

Hardness: 2.5 – 3
Composition: Cu
