Malachite most often forms botryoidal, fibrous, or stalagmitic masses, in fractures and deep, underground spaces, where the water table and hydrothermal fluids provide the means for chemical precipitation.
Fibrous Malachite looks exactly like it sounds - strands of fiber usually grouped in clusters, but often multiple clusters facing in different directions. Quite shimmery and a variety of greens make these specimens unique. .73 oz, 1.25"x1.5"
