NATIVE SILVER & CHALCOCITE: WHITE PINE MINE, ONTONAGON COUNTY, MICHIGAN NR!

This specimen is not for sale, and was archived from an external source for the purpose of preserving and sharing its geologic, geographic, and collector value.

Description: Its pretty sweet to view under a hand lens, and I'd estimate the piece is comprised of roughly 50% crystal silver and 50% chalcocite and quartz! The principal ore mineral was chalcocite although native copper and silver predominated in the lower part of the beds.
