CHALCOPYRITE CRYSTAL CLUSTER

Out of stock
CHALCOPYRITE CRYSTAL CLUSTER
A beautiful bright Chalcopyrite Crystal Cluster. This Chalcopyrite Crystal Cluster had to be removed from our shop as too many customers couldn’t help them selves and kept touching it. Eventually all metals will tarnish if people keep touching them and they will loose their shiny brightness. This is the best we have seen for a solid cluster of Chalcopyrite worthy of museum grade or serious collection. This Chalcopyrite is very shiny and reflective. Chalcopyrite is Pyrite with Copper which gives it a more realistic look of gold. A great chunky specimen which has taken millions of years for nature to produce. This specimen is mounted on a perspex pad for enhanced display.
Dimensions:
5.4cm x 3.5cm x 8cm, 359g
Location:
Madan, Bulgaria.
Chalcopyrite: CuFeS2
