Description: | [New Jersey], [USA] unknown From William Hunter's original collection. In the old museum catalogue this is said to be from Cornwall. Later notes suggest New Jersey as more likely. These also suggest that this may be "Copper no.4" in the Fordyce catalogue: "No. 4. A Solid Mass of Copper in its Metallic form covered in some places with green and red Calx of Copper. From New Jersey in America. From its Solidity it probably has not been precipitated by Iron but originally deposited in the Vein. By the humid Assay the Copper appears to be nearly pure". | License: | http://www.hmag.gla.ac.uk/spirit/rights/ | Publisher: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Rights holder: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Subjects: | ORIGINAL BEQUEST : MINERAL : ELEMENT : OXIDE : | Source: | Hunterian Museum | Creator: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Identifier: | http://www.huntsearch.gla.ac.uk/cgi-bin/... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
