      copper telluride mineral with the formula Cu7Te5, the purple-red masses of which resemble tarnished bornite. It was discovered at Vulcan, Colo., where it is accompanied by weissite, another copper telluride (Cu2−XTe). For chemical formulas and detailed physical properties, see sulfide mineral (table).
