Anyone know anything about this PMC copper bar?

Anyone have knowledge about this copper bar marked PMC?

The dimensions are 5 1/2" x 2 7/8" x 1 3/8" , and it weighs about 6 1/2 pounds.

I was unable to find any similar examples in my searches. An internet search of "PMC copper mining" brings up Palabora Mining Company in South Africa, but I have no way to verify whether that is or isn't the same PMC on this bar.

I'm hoping something on this forum might have some copper / mining knowledge and insights beyond my simple internet searching.

Thanks!

Interesting copper bar....I assume the cut on the bar was done by you when digging the bar or to check the metal content.....Good idea to move this to the PM forum... will look at comments there. Cheers, RickO
