Cuprite var. Chalcotrichite

Bisbee, Warren District, Mule Mts, Cochise Co., Arizona

6.1cm x 4.2cm x 3cm

Ex. A. E. Foote


Description/Interesting Notes:

A classic, old time example of cuprite var. chalcotrichite from Bisbee!!! This specimen hosts a broad vug with a rich showing of intense, ruby red cuprite var. chalcotrichite!!! The chalcotrichite is present both as complex filagrees of square-shaped crystals and elongated, hair-like crystals!!! Upon close inspection with a loupe or scope, one can see some amazing crystalline forms (the hair-like crystals are actually dramatically elongated cubes with sharp, squared edges and the complex filagrees of crystals show the same features)!!! There is also a small amount of chalcotrichite on the reverse as well!!! Classic old time material!!! This specimen retains an old label from A.E. Foote as well!!! 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!!!
