description:
Classic iridescent thin platy crystals of covellite measuring to 0.5 cm in size set nicely up on matrix. Micro-chipping present, not atypical of these. I think that the specimen is in good condition. Classic material for this locality. This old specimen comes with several previous labels as shown at the end of the video.
