TX96D8: Malachite after Cuprite
From old discoveries comes this Cuprite that has been psuedomorphised by Malachite. The piece is a floater, the crystal is well defined, and it has a form that is different from the typical ones.

SV3100EPF: Malachite after Cuprite on Azurite with Baryte
A little eroded by the passage of time, but it is fascinating how the Cuprite pseudomorphed by Malachite has resisted perfectly and stands gracefully on the Azurite. Throughout the piece there are also the characteristic granular barytes, almost always reddish due to the presence of iron oxides. Chessy is the type locality for Azurite.

MEB87ASN5: Malachite on Quartz
New find in Munich 2024, featured in edition 56, number 1, of the Mineralogical Record magazine. Group of Malachite crystals, of considerable size for the locality, with well-defined faces and edges, and a very uniform deep green color, which have grown on a hyaline and well-defined Quartz crystal. The specimen has been analyzed and identified as Malachite, and although a pseudomorph cannot be ruled out, this possibility seems unlikely to us, given the appearance, shape, and great luster of the crystals. The Tazalarht mining area continues to offer pleasant mineral surprises.
