Covellite with Chalkopyrite (M728)
Very rare US classics! The locality, localized in a volcanic dome at the margin of the nested Summitville and Platoro calderas, produced the rare mineral of Covellite in exceptional quality - for sure the best ones ever found in North America; probably world-wide. The crystals show metallic luster and this wonderful dark blue color.
