Item Description
A highly unusual Milpillas find that threw people some confusion back when they came out about 10 years ago, these oddball chalcocites (originally sold as chalcocite or pyrite depending on whom you bought from), turn out to be a thin sub-millimeter coating on top of sharp pyrite. This is an excellent miniature with a super sharp crystal of 1.7 cm perched smartly in contrasting host rock. http://www.mindat.org/E11-1F8 ; ex. Bob Noble to Matt McGill thumbnail collections.
