#Chalcopyrite is a copper iron sulfide mineral, with the chemical formula CuFeS₂. Because of its abundance and ease of extraction, chalcopyrite is the dominant ore for obtaining #copper. It's found in hydrothermal veins Read more:

Shiny, iridescent and striated #Chalcopyrite crystal cluster found deep inside a large mass of quartz, #Fossicked from #MineWaste at Wheal Clifford, Gwennap, #Cornwall

We like to think this type of clean geometric minimalism is 'modern', but humans will have been influenced by these shapes since before we were human.

Cubes of #Galena #Fossicked from #MineWaste at East Wheal Maid. I found an approx 5cm thick section of druzy quartz vein, with lots of mineralisation present, which you can see here - plenty of #Chalcopyrite and #Sphalerate as well.
