Description
~ Covellite cab ~

Offered here is LARGE, deluxe cabochon of covellite, a rare heavyweight metallic ore of copper from the Leonard mine near Butte, Montana. This awesome, super reflective stone features the classic deep, rich cobalt blue coloration, with subtle moire-like threads, and smatteriings of shiny metallic pyrite. It also has a few hints of the very desireable rosy-fuschia flash, although that phenomenon is only visible at certain angles. In hand, you'll probably be astounded by the cab's hefty weight; it's amazingly heavy for its size. This one ought to make an outstanding heirloom piece of jewelry, no doubt, or a soon-to-be favorite in your collection of ultra-rarities. It has a well rounded dome of 6mm, a graceful designer 'flame' shape, and despite some tiny natural voids, it took a brilliantly gleaming polish both front and back.

Size: 53x21mm
Weight: approximately 89 carats
