Now that the copper mine in Rubtsovskoe has closed, there will be no new specimens of the fantastic quality of material found there. This one is a beauty: a sharp single octahedral crystal with brilliant metallic luster in a dark silver color, with a few small babies on the back side.  The crystals are very sharp, with crisp edges and sharp points.  There is no significant damage.
