Typically occurring as fibrous, acicular, or botryoidal aggregates, it develops in the oxidized zones of copper deposits as a secondary mineral. Plancheite is frequently associated with other copper minerals, including dioptase, malachite, chrysocolla, and shattuckite. Its rich colour and distinctive silky lustre make it a desirable addition to fine mineral collections.
