SILVER, CHALCOCITE & CALCITE: 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 around 60% silver and 40% chalcocite and calcite and that's it! The principal ore mineral was chalcocite although native copper and silver predominated in the lower part of the beds.
