I hacked a peice of covellite out of the snow and dirt today with my ace 250. Covellite is rare around here because the mine it came from (The Leonard Mine) Has been closed for a VERY long time, and to my understanding is full of water now. I took it uptown to get it cut into some cabs, if they turn out nice, ill post them!
