Conichalcite

Conichalcite is a secondary copper arsenate mineral, recognized for its attractive green to yellow-green coloration and distinctive fibrous crystal formations. Typically occurring as radiating aggregates, botryoidal crusts, and reniform masses, it forms within the oxidized zones of copper deposits through the alteration of primary copper-bearing minerals. Conichalcite is a member of the adelite-descloizite group and is frequently found in association with other secondary copper minerals. Its vibrant colour and varied crystal habits make it an appealing addition to mineral collections. Explore our selection of genuine conichalcite specimens for your collection.
