This colorful ore sample highlights the bronze chalcopyrite vein along with the iridescent purplish-blue of Covellite. I have never seen more than a speck of covellite from Bisbee before and although massive, this is pound sof it, and very pretty overall. A significant ore sample from a rare portion of the deposit, now long since mined out.
