It is formed through hydrothermal processes, where copper-containing solutions crystallize in rock cavities, forming their typical, root-like grown shapes. The Keweenaw Peninsula in Michigan is considered one of the most significant sites worldwide for native copper nuggets of this purity and size. With a Mohs hardness of about 2.5-3, copper is quite soft, yet astonishingly dimensionally stable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv itemscope=\"\" itemprop=\"mainEntity\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Question\"\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 itemprop=\"name\"\u003eHow do I properly care for my copper nugget?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv itemscope=\"\" itemprop=\"acceptedAnswer\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Answer\"\u003e\n\n\u003cp itemprop=\"text\"\u003eCopper tolerates brief contact with water, but should be thoroughly dried afterward, as it tends to oxidize quickly otherwise. You should avoid prolonged moisture or aggressive cleaning agents. A light patina that forms over time is completely natural and can even be seen as a sign of authenticity - if you want to maintain the original shine, polish carefully with a soft cloth. You should avoid direct sunlight for extended periods, as it can alter the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv itemscope=\"\" itemprop=\"mainEntity\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Question\"\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 itemprop=\"name\"\u003eHow do I recognize real native copper?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv itemscope=\"\" itemprop=\"acceptedAnswer\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Answer\"\u003e\n\n\u003cp itemprop=\"text\"\u003eYou can recognize native copper by its high weight in relation to its size - it is significantly heavier than one would initially expect. The surface shows irregular, root- or coral-like growth forms that no industrially manufactured piece can replicate.
