A rare mineral composed of cobalt nickel sulfide, found in certain ore deposits.
Named after the German mineralogist Carl Conitz in the late 19th century. The '-ite' suffix indicates it's a mineral, a naming convention in mineralogy.
Conite is so rare that most geologists have never seen a real specimen—it exists in mineralogy textbooks and museum collections, but finding it in nature is like discovering a hidden species of dinosaur fossil still alive.
