Chalcopyrite var. "Blister Copper" (Ref: CH22-32)

Tonglushan Dist., Daye Co., Huangshi, Hubei, China
100mm x 70mm x 50mm
$4500
This is a Chalcopyrite var. "Blister Copper" from Tonglushan Dist., Daye Co., Huangshi, Hubei, China. These unusual copper species specimens are one of the more surprising finds of the last few years, in that blister copper itself is fairly rare worldwide and we had not seen anything like this from China before (presumably, because it is a rich and easy ore, and is simply smelted at economic mines).
Data last checked on 16th Oct 2024 - specimen may no longer be available
