Classic nickel arsenide assemblage as described by Petruk in "The Silver-Arsenide Deposits of Cobalt...", This specimen shows the plumose ore texture so typical of Cobalt but mostly composed of brassy colored Breithauptite and Nickeline with a distinct rose hue. This assemblage was found most prevalent in at the ends, tops and bottoms of most veins. Excellent specimen showing also the Dolomitic gangue. It is sawed flat on one side and shows natural breakage on the other.
