Chalcopyrite is made up of copper, iron and sulfur - CuFeS2. It appears as a yellow mineral sulfide sometimes partially weathered with greenish or bluish copper minerals and yellow to red iron minerals limonite or hematite. Chalcopyrite is generally mined for its copper content. As a by product of almost all copper mining there is generally a small amount of gold or silver content in the ore.
