Chalcocite, Calcite

Locality: Bristol Copper Mine, Bristol, Hartford Co., Connecticut, USA

Extremely sharp chalcocites to 1 cm perched o ncntrasting calcite matrix make this a very special, unique miniature for the famous locality, mined actively during the Civil War era. Such specimens are few and far between now, and this is a very choice piece, aesthetically. 3.9 x 3.5 x 3.0 cm
