Description/Interesting Notes:
A classic, old time example of covellite and pyrite from Sardinia!!! This specimen consists of a
brilliantly metallic, iridescent plate of covellite that hosts numerous characteristically flattened crystals
of golden metallic pyrite!!! The covellite exhibits an intense blue, purple, and magenta metallic brilliance that is quite
showy when combined with the sharp, geometric forms of the sharp brassy-golden pyrite crystals!!! This is
classic, old time material that likely dates to the early 1900's!!!
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 SATURDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 5-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY MARCH 8th!!!
