Item Description
Splendent, sharp, golden pseudo-tetrahedral chalcopyrite crystals, to 1.6 cm, with light iridescence are richly scattered on the mounded matrix along with numerous lustrous, translucent, brown, lenticular siderite crystals. The dramatic large siderite is 5.7 cm long, VERY LARGE for the locale. It has the best color. These came out about 10 years ago (circa 2014-15) from an obscure open pit copper deposit, mined mostly for the chalcopyrite. The siderites are bladed and sharp, and the distinctly different habits and colors of the two minerals provide a nice visual contrast to each other.
