Calumetite was discovered with
Anthonyite in 1963. Other copper minerals have been linked to calumetite which include copper, cuprite, malachite, atacamite, paratacamite, buttgenbachite. The minerals were found in the centennial mine which is known to yield copper minerals. Calumetite has been found

by means of the lime blue recipe which showed that the mineral is synthetic. Calumetite was first discovered in calumet
Michigan but has since been observed in other mines near the Calumet mine. It was suggested that calumetite is not a post-mine evaporate because of the mode of
