{"product_id":"aurichalcite-with-calcite-and-chrysacolla-from-mexico","title":"Aurichalcite with calcite and chrysacolla from Mexico.","description":"Aurichalcite is found with chrysocolla in mineral specimens. Both are often associated with other copper minerals in copper and zinc deposits. Chrysocolla is a copper silicate, while aurichalcite is a copper zinc carbonate. They can be found together in the same deposits, and have been identified together in specific locations. \nAurichalcite is a secondary mineral that typically forms in the oxidation zones of copper and zinc ore deposits. It often appears as radiating, acicular crystals with a characteristic blue-green color, as seen in the prominent light blue\/green areas of the specimen. \nChrysocolla:\nThis mineral is a hydrous copper phyllosilicate and is known for its blue-green to turquoise colors. It can occur in various forms, including botryoidal masses and as replacements of other minerals like aurichalcite and smithsonite, which might be present in the matrix or as veins within the specimen. This is a beautiful blue statement piece for any collector.","brand":"Earth's Sparkles","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48007872381149,"sku":null,"price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0834\/5115\/0557\/files\/7f93706c-il_fullxfull.6979390503_h9ly.jpg?v=1780935620","url":"https:\/\/earthssparkles.com\/products\/aurichalcite-with-calcite-and-chrysacolla-from-mexico","provider":"Earth's Sparkles","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
