Brochantite Mineral Collection- 57 g - (1)

The genesis of Brochantite is closely tied to copper sulfide ore deposits. It often occurs as a secondary mineral within the oxidized zones of these deposits, evidencing the dynamic interaction of geological processes. Its formation depends on the interaction between copper-bearing solutions and sulfate-rich waters. The vivid green hues, a distinctive hallmark of Brochantite, derive from the presence of copper ions in its crystal structure. These crystals often appear in acicular or prismatic shapes, contributing to its aesthetic appeal.
