Malachite
Copper Carbonate Hydroxide:
Cu2(CO3)(OH)2.
Malachite is a green, very common secondary copper mineral with a widely variable habit. Typically it is found as crystalline aggregates or crusts, often banded in appearance, like agates. It is also often found as botryoidal clusters of radiating crystals, and as mammillary aggregates as well. Named in antiquity by Pliny the Elder 79 CE as molochitus after the Greek ”mallows” in allusion to the green colour of the leaves. Known in the new spelling, malachites, at least by 1661. Malachite is a green and common secondary copper mineral with widely variable habit. Frequently found as a pseudomorph after Azurite crystals, which are generally more tabular in shape.
