Siegenite with Chalcopyrite, Dolomite
specimen number:
3831371
location:
West Fork mine, Viburnum Trend, Reynolds Co., Missouri, USA
description:
Very interesting specimen showing crystalline chalcopyrite forming casts after previous cube octahedral crystals of galena and scattered across the top of this dolomite crystal matrix. Then a second-generation of sparkling silver white metallic micro crystallized siegenite is coating a lot of this chalcopyrite. Very nice example for this rare species.
