CHALCOSITE, CHALCOPYRITE and SIDERITE - Kaiwu Mine, Hezhang, Bijie, Guizhou, China
This high-copper specimen combines Chalcosite, Chalcopyrite and Siderite from the famous Kaiwu mine in Hezhang, Guizhou Province, China. The part is mainly made up of a dense matrix of massive Chalcosine with a typical steel-gray metallic sheen. Its main face is superbly enhanced by crystallized chalcopyrite beaches with powerful natural iridescence, displaying bright shades of purple, copper red and gold. The reverse of the mineral reveals a very different texture, embellished with a tapestry of small geometric crystals of honey-colored siderite. A complete and heavy 250-gram cabinet sample, ideal to illustrate the richness of the sulphides from this renowned deposit.
