Malachite is a naturally occurring gemstone
that ranges in colour from light to dark green and has a monoclinic crystal
structure. Cheminally, it is a minor ore of copper and is therefore not a
form of quartz. (Many of the most popular crystals and gemstones such
as amethyst, rose
quartz, clear
quartz and others are forms of quartz,
which is a form of Silicon Dioxide.) Malachite is a
very popular crystal and is common among the crystal collections of people
interested
in energy
work,
healing,
and "New
Age" pursuits generally.
Malachite is a relatively common gemstone / mineral
that is found in a wide range of locations worldwide. Examples of sources
of malachite include: Australia,
Congo, England, France, Greece, Mexico, Russia, USA, Zambia.

The

especially the heart and the throat chakras. Goal achievement; Aviation; Self-awareness.
