Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Cuprite
Locality: Cole Mine (Cole shaft; Cole No. 3), Bisbee, Warren District, Mule Mts, Cochise County, Arizona, USA (Locality at mindat.org)
Size: cabinet, 11.4 x 10.1 x 5.6 cm
Cuprite var. Chalcotrichite
A vivid specimen with METALLIC, lustrous, red crystals of this variety of cuprite. From Bisbee, this is certainly an old piece, probably pre-1950s, and would be considered an extremely rich example for both the species and locality. Most specimens are small, and somewhat less show-worthy. This piece has large patches of the acicular cuprite crystals all over it, though. Esker Mayberry was the Bisbee barber and amassed a large and fine collection of Bisbee specimens in part by trading haircuts!
