RM2814 Chalcocite with tennantite and calcite
Mantos Cobrizos mine, Paipote, Copiapó, Atacama, ChileVery rich group of sharp chalcocite crystals, some isolated and other interpenetrated, tabular and with very clear twinned pseudohexagonal forms. Intense metallic luster, gray color. They stand out on a matrix of bright calcite and small tennantite crystals. The specimens of this locality are very rare. Novelty in Sainte-Marie-aux-Mines 2017. The Mantos Cobrizos mine is a type of "mantle" deposit. This is a small Cu deposit, located in the mining district of Los Cóndores, close to Paipote, Copiapó.

Pabellón de Pica, Chanabaya, Iquique, Tarapacá, ChileSky blue ammeneite occurring as minute crystals on and in halite with green atacamite. From the type locality. This is a fairly rare copper halide and is the first mineral known to contain ammonia radical cation (·NH3) groups.
Size: 3.4 x 2.7 x 2.6 cm.
RM2404 Molybdenite
Inca de Oro, Chañaral/Copiapó, Atacama, ChileMolybdenite specimens from Inca del Oro are very difficult to find in the market and more with defined crystals.
