Description/Interesting Notes:
A magnificent Butte classic indeed!!! This specimen consists of a cluster of large sharp blades of covellite that have been
completely replaced by chalcocite on a matrix of pseudomorphic chalcocite, covellite, and pyrite!!! The blades are sharply defined
and aesthetically arranged in rosette-like clusters!!!
This specimen is a killer in person - the pics don't even come close to doing it justice!!!
This specimen is from the collection of well-known Butte collector and scholar Bob Jenkins and
retains his original collection label (this specimen sat in his main display case!)!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
STAY TUNED!!! MORE AUCTIONS WILL BE ADDED MONDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 3-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY MARCH 22nd!!!
