Chalcopyrite
specimen number:
3871060
location:
Kambove, Haut-Katanga, DR Congo
description:
Wonderful example for the species, a lustrous large very sharp crystal of chalcopyrite. I think in really good condition with just slight micro-chipping present, this crystal is complete all around with no points of attachment. Good large sharp crystals for this species are not terribly common.
Size: 4.0 x 4.0 x 3.3 cm (miniature)
