A superb example of covellite from Butte!!! This specimen consists of a showy plate of iridescent metallic blue crystals of
covellite in association with a lone quartz crystal!!! The covellite crystals show
characteristic hexagonal form and exhibit a slight alteration to chalcocite along their edges which serves to almost highlight
their outlines in person!!! The crystals have a handsome iridescent blue metallic color and display magnificently in person!!! The
single quartz point is stout and razor-sharp with gem clarity and glassy luster!!! Simply an outstanding old time
Butte covellite!!!
The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
