These specimens, of a very characteristic style and habit, were found in the 1960s at this famous gold mine. The edges are festooned with small brassy, tabular crystals of both cubanite (more erratically formed or acicular crystals) and pyrrhotite (sharply hexagonal). The larger hexagonal crystal of pyrrhotite (about 1 cm).\u003C\u002Fdd>\u003C\u002Fdl>\u003C\u002Fdd>\u003C\u002Fdl>",520,{"id":436,"source_url":437,"license_code":286,"credit_html":438,"title":439,"description":433,"author":290,"original_width":440,"original_height":292},51273,"https:\u002F\u002Fcommons.wikimedia.org\u002F?curid=10162613","Robert M.

I think the cubanite (and associated more rare species) fills thin fracture seams within. On the exposed main face, there are dozens of thin, flatlaying cubanite crystals to 7mm in size. I had never seen cubanite from a US locality, before. According to the MINDAT entry on this mine, it produced ore from 1900-1910. Apparently this specimen was exchanged to the Academy by the Smithsonian. I am not sure if the reference on the Smithsonian label indicates this particular piece was referenced in 1958, or just the locality itself, in that article.\u003C\u002Fdd>\u003C\u002Fdl>\u003C\u002Fdd>\u003C\u002Fdl>",356,[470,477,482,488],{"id":471,"url":472,"label":473,"formula":474,"spacegroup":475,"year":476},3377,"\u002Fcif\u002F3377.cif","McCammon 1992","Cu Fe2 S3","P c m n",1992,{"id":478,"url":479,"label":480,"formula":474,"spacegroup":475,"year":481},3381,"\u002Fcif\u002F3381.cif","Fleet 1971",1971,{"id":483,"url":484,"label":485,"formula":486,"spacegroup":475,"year":487},3383,"\u002Fcif\u002F3383.cif","Azaroff 1955","Fe2 Cu S3",1955,{"id":489,"url":490,"label":491,"formula":486,"spacegroup":475,"year":198},3384,"\u002Fcif\u002F3384.cif","Buerger 1947",[493,494,495,496,497,498,499,500],"Barracanit","Barracanita","Barracanite","Chalmersit","Chalmersita","Chalmersite","Cuban","Cupropyrite (of Schneider)",[502,506,510,514,520,524,528,532,536,541,545,549,553,557,561,564,567,571,574,577,581,585],{"lang":503,"names":504},"az",[505],"Kubanit",{"lang":507,"names":508},"bg",[509],"Кубанит",{"lang":511,"names":512},"ca",[513],"cubanita",{"lang":515,"names":516},"cs",[517,518,519],"chalmersit","kuban","kubanit",{"lang":521,"names":522},"de",[493,496,523],"Cubanit",{"lang":525,"names":526},"el",[527],"Κουβανίτης",{"lang":529,"names":530},"es",[494,497,531],"Cubanita",{"lang":533,"names":534},"eu",[531,535],"Kubanita",{"lang":537,"names":538},"fr",[495,539,498,7,540],"Chalcopyrrhotite","CuFe2S3",{"lang":542,"names":543},"he",[544],"קובניט",{"lang":546,"names":547},"it",[548],"cubanite",{"lang":550,"names":551},"ja",[552],"キューバ鉱",{"lang":554,"names":555},"nb",[556],"cubanitt",{"lang":558,"names":559},"nl",[560,548],"Cubaniet",{"lang":562,"names":563},"nn",[556],{"lang":565,"names":566},"pl",[505],{"lang":568,"names":569},"ru",[570],"кубанит",{"lang":572,"names":573},"sr",[570],{"lang":575,"names":576},"sv",[523],{"lang":578,"names":579},"ta",[580],"கியூபானைட்டு",{"lang":582,"names":583},"uk",[584],"Кубаніт",{"lang":586,"names":587},"uz",[505],"Q424923",{"history":11,"applications":11}]
