Description
ex. Dr. Mark Feinglos Collection A surprisingly large and fine chalcopyrite from this ancient mining district, probably dating (i am told) to the late 1700s or very early 1800s! This large display piece is a major French classic, and comes with a historic old label (though we do not know whose it was). The large cluster atop is fully 2 inches across, and is possibly twinned. THis is a major chalcopyrite for any European locality, but we see particularly few old specimens from the St. Marie mines as opposed to German or English material which came out in a time an dplace where more collectors hoarded it away for the future.

Chalcopyrite Sales Data
How this data is collected: Our system continuously monitors mineral listings from authorized dealer partners across the internet. We have explicit permission from all dealers whose listings we track - any dealers who have not provided specific and explicit authorization are NOT listed and NOT tracked by our system. When a previously available listing is marked as sold or removed from sale, we record this as a completed transaction. While we cannot guarantee the exact final sale price (as negotiations may occur), this data represents publicly listed prices for specimens that have transitioned from "for sale" to "sold" status. This provides valuable market insights based on observable listing behavior patterns.
