Chalcopyrite with Calcite (twinned)
These brassy chalcopyrite configurations (often called blister copper) could initially be mistaken for old, classic finds from Cornwall, with similar bright luster and bubbling formation, but they're actually "COVID-era" finds from China. They are from a small pocket which we acquired that came out in late 2019. This is a surprisingly balanced specimen with a sharp twinned calcite overtopping a rolling plate of solid chalcopyrite. Unique, aesthetic material!
