Malachite

Malachite is a very common copper mineral known for its copper green color with black lines and spherical crystal formations. In nature, malachite is often found in combination with the blue Azurite, which is also a copper mineral. The name comes from the Greek word Malve which means cheese powder. Malachite was already processed into a gemstone in ancient Egypt and it was also known to the romines. These pieces are great for cutting cabochons or other decorative objects. But there must be warnings about the toxicity of malachite. Therefore, you must always observe the correct safety precautions when sharpening.
