Luzonite on Covellite with Quartz & Pyrite Leonard Mine, Butte, Silver Bow Co., Montana 5.6cm x 4cm x 2.4cm Ex. Richard S. Haas Ex. Robert E. Jenkins II Collection No. 10061

Description/Interesting Notes: A rare example of luzonite on covellite from Butte!!! This specimen consists of a showy example of iridescent covellite with pyrite and quartz that hosts a significant showing of rare luzonite crystals!!! The luzonite crystals are present as groups of submillimeter crystals on the covellite crystals as well as a few slightly larger individual crystals perched among the pyrite crystals!!! The covellite crystals have brilliant blue-purple-red iridescence with broad crystalline faces and some sharply defined edges as well!!! There are some small, complete, and undamaged covellite crystals that are surprisingly thick present as well!!! Not only is this a magnificent example of this rare species - it is a fantastic example of covellite in and of itself!!! This specimen is from the personal collection of noted Butte collector and scholar Bob Jenkins and retains his original personal collection label!!! This specimen also retains an old label from Richard S. Haas as well!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
