Malachite is a copper carbonate crystal that forms as copper deteriorates over time. So it’s not surprising that malachite would form on a copper crystal sometimes but it’s still awesome to see! This specimen hails from Arizona.

It reminds me of kale a bit- but with a bit of shiny copper!
That looks like mine. As in, it should be mine.
Malachite is one of my favourite minerals I feel almost a little sad thinking of how much is used and smelted down…
