Aside from being a major Silver producing mine since the 1890’s, the Commodore Mine is well known for producing some excellent sulfide displays specimens, including some of the finest Sphalerites from Colorado, especially from the standpoint of gem quality Sphalerite! This piece is filled with highly lustrous, complex, modified crystals of green-honey-gold Sphalerite which are associated with a few soft golden color tetragonal crystals of Chalcopyrite. When backlit, some of the Sphalerites show great gemminess. A great cabinet size display specimen from this classic locality in southwestern Colorado.
