High-grade copper ore from the Blue Jay Mine east of Yerington, Nevada, approx 70 x 50 x 35 mm. Contains native copper crystals, red cuprite, green malachite, silvery chalcocite, light blue chrysocolla, and some deep blue azurite in a quartz matrix. Quite heavy for its size. The Yerington area is home to the Anaconda Open-Pit Copper Mine which operated from 1952 to 1978 on the west side of the town, and the Nevada Copper Pumpkin Hollow Underground Mine now in development to the northeast of town. The Blue Jay was a short-lived underground operation in the early 1900s.
