Bornite

3D ModelNoAI

Bornite, with the chemical formula Cu5FeS4, is a copper iron sulfide mineral famous for its iridescent purple, blue, and green colors. It commonly forms in massive or granular deposits in copper ore veins. Bornite is an important copper ore, providing a significant source of this metal for industrial use. The mineral’s metallic luster and vibrant colors make it popular among collectors. Over time, bornite can tarnish to display even more brilliant hues on its surface.
