Large Raw Chrysocolla Malachite Mineral

Chrysocolla is a gorgeous blue/green copper mineral. It's colour comes from the oxidation process of the copper ore, which takes on a cyan colour with extended exposure to oxygen, but the stone also contains various quantities of other minerals, which create its soft texture and porous appearance. It is a soft stone and is therefore not used in jewellery very often but rather in the form of gem silica.

Gem silica is a crystallized form of this stone where chrysocolla is infused in quartz. It is commonly found with shattuckite, malachite, azurite and with cuprite. Both quantum quattro and eilat stone are both stones that naturally contain chrysocolla as one of the minerals that make up these stones. This gorgeous raw mineral is a combination stone comprising primary of chrysocolla and malachite.

The malachite presents itself as chatoyant pockets as well as veins. Some gem silica is also apparent as a lighter blue mineral with a shiny appearance and a distinct texture. A beautiful and diverse spectrum of blues and green, its a really aesthetic piece. Chrysocolla is a stone of harmony, both on a universal level and a very specific level. It can be used to purify a place or remove negativity from a person.

It is a very gentle stone and its energy works in a gentle, harmonious way. It can help ease fear, anxiety, and guilt, and bring hope. It is also used to communicate with the spiritual forces of the earth.

This means any sort of meditation, mindfulness, or magic that has to do with emotional situations, as well as magic that literally draws on the power of the ocean.
