Color: soft, deep-blue, some green because of malachite
Found: Utah, Arizona and New Mexico, Mexico, Namibia, Congo, Zaire, Australia, China, Russia and many parts of Europe.
Interesting facts:

  • Malachite and azurite are actually chemical twins; aside from color, their only difference is that azurite holds less water than malachite.
