Malachite Botryoidal Raw Specimen | Green Copper Based Crystal

Malachite is known for its beautiful green color, which is caused by the presence of copper in its chemical structure. The color of malachite can range from a pale green to a dark, almost black green, depending on the amount of copper present. Copper is used as an amplifying metal which lends Malachite its metaphysical properties of amplification of intention, making it perfect for manifestation and prosperity work. The fibrous and botryoidal variety of malachite is a form of this mineral that is characterized by its fibrous, hair-like appearance. It is formed through the precipitation of malachite in a fibrous or acicular habit, often in combination with other minerals such as azurite and cuprite. The malachite is most commonly found in association with copper deposits, where it often forms an alteration product of primary copper minerals. It can also be found in sedimentary rocks, where it may be formed through the weathering and oxidation of copper-rich minerals. Raw malachite typically forms dense, fibrous mats or botryoidal masses. The individual fibers are typically elongated and thin, with a bright green color and a silky, lustrous appearance.
