Chalcocite after wood (Ref: P520)

Nacimiento Mine, Cuba, New Mexico, USA
47mm x 23mm x 13mm
$225
Chalcocite that has replaced a section of fossilized wood. The former bark of the wood is present all around. Colorful and unsual with coatings of blue and green (likely Azurite and Malachite). Interestingly, these Chalcocite replaced pieces of wood were the main source of ore for the mine, and high silver values were found in some of the logs. According to Phil Simmons, some logs were observed at over 1 meter wide and 6-10 meters long. Ex. Neil Levett collection acquired in 2011.
