Mt. Karpinskogo is the second in height Mt of Ural - https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%93%D0%BE%D1%80%D0%B0_%D0%9A%D0%B0%D1%80%D0%BF%D0%B8%D0%BD%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%BE%D0%B3%D0%BE_%28%D0%A3%D1%80%D0%B0%D0%BB%29. But I don't think, that any smaragdite was known from here.
"Serveroulski" hint us to Severouralsk city in Sverdlovskaya oblast'. There smaragdite is more possible, but still not famous.
A photo of the specimen able to help more, than its completely wrong label. I bet for chromian pargasite from Kempirsai (https://www.mindat.org/photo-157335.html) or something similar. ;-)

Not the best sort, but quite usual and typical one.

Sphalerite (and galena) is possible, but is much more rare than pyrite.
This rock is poor gold ore. But during weathering and oxidation it is important source for gold placers formation.
