The mineral cobaltite, CoAsS, has a brittle fracture, and exhibits good cleavage in three directions.
CoAsS
Cobaltite is a sulfide mineral composed of cobalt, arsenic, and sulfur, CoAsS. Its impurities may contain up to 10% iron and variable amounts of nickel.The mineral is mostly found in the Cobalt District, Ontario, Canada; Sweden; Norway; Germany; Cornwall, England; Australia; Democratic Republic of the Congo; and Morocco.It occurs in high-temperature hydrothermal deposits and contact metamorphic rocks.I only know this.
It is a solid found as the ore cobaltite and most abundantly in veins of copper and nickel ore.
Cobalt minerals are cobaltite, skutterdite, glaucodot, saffronite; cobalt is also a by-product of copper and nickel processing.
Cobalite is cobalt that has been extracted from copper and nickel. The mixture is often heated and treated using flash smelting techniques, and often, the mixture is boiled to get it to separate.
Cobalt itself is not a mineral. Cobalt mixed with arsenic and sulfur make the mineral Cobaltite. It also has iron and nickel mixed in.
Ferrite or cobaltite crystals are within a hard disk.

Copper is found as Copper ore in rocks. Incorrect! Co is the symbol for cobalt, not copper. Copper is Cu. The greatest reserves of cobalt is found in Africa, mostly Zambia and The Congo. The form found is in various ores such as cobaltite.
Cobalt is obtained by heating its ores to produce cobalt oxide. The cobalt ores are: cobaltite, smaltite, chloranthite, and linnaeite. Once those ores are heated, the remaining compound is then heated with aluminum to release the pure metal.
