THE MINERAL ENARGITE ... Enargite is a somewhat rare copper mineral. It does not often form well shaped crystals, but there are several localities that produce some fine enargite clusters. Its crystals that form tabular to blocky to prismatic forms are often pseudohexagonal, having six sides but not six identical sides.
