Malachite is a copper mineral that is green in color. It is often banded with shades of green. Striking and intriguing patterns are demanded by gemstone enthusiasts. In ancient time, malachite was used to make jewelry, ornaments, and even color pigments in its powdered form.
One note: There are quite a lot fake/reconstituted malachite in the market. They usually have really contrasting colors (the lines are really dark, almost black) and a lot of the patterns are straight lines. The gemstones in Unearthed Gemstones are 100% genuine.
