- Description: The distinct free-form polished surface features islands of concentric turquoise scenes in a sea of azure chrysocolla.
- Additional Information: Malachite is a minor ore but a common copper mineral composed of basic copper carbonate (Cu2CO3(OH)2). Because of its characteristic bright green color and its presence in the altered zone of nearly all copper deposits, malachite serves as a useful guide for prospecting this metal. Malachite has been used as an ornamental stone and gemstone for centuries.
- Chrysocolla is a greenish-blue mineral composed of hydrated copper silicate that occurs in the form of opaline crusts and masses. It is often found in combination with malachite.
