Before Introduction… Canada, Australia, US, England, Japan, Mexico Not very expensive Naturally iridescent Similar with pyrite Pyrite is harder and less yellow than chalcopyrite.

Basic Information Chemical Formula: CuFeS 2 Hardness: (copper: 3; iron: 4) Cleavage: Indistinct Luster: Metallic Color: Brass yellow (mostly); Iridescent purplish tarnish Magnetism: Magnetic on Heating Streak: Greenish black Effervescence: No

Common Use ore of copper (low in terms of copper atom per molecule) crystal healing session (brain disorders, tumors and bronchitis)

Varieties Blister Copper Chalcopyrite in a globular (ball) or botryoidal (grape) rounded from. Peacock Ore It is used to described chalcopyrite with a colorful iridescent tarnish effect. People usually use acid to make it brighter and more beautiful.
