Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Cobaltite
Locality: Håkansboda, Lindesberg, Västmanland, Sweden (Locality at mindat.org)
This beautifully crystallized piece, formerly in the noted collection of Stig Adolfsson then went to the Bergskolan Filipstad, Sweden. Bergskolan is swedish for school of mining. Filipstad is a small city in the south of Langban with this famous school of mining. It is a fairly rare copper cobalt sulfarsenide. It features a mirror-bright luster, and a battleship gray color along with modified faces. It is complete all around, though with very minor edge wear here and there. Given the significance, I can live with that and consider any small wear trivial in context. Crystals of this size are considered HUGE for the species, and I have never seen such a large example for sale before and this is a museum quality rarity 2.5 x 2.3 x 2.2 cm
