Malachite — Banded Copper Carbonate
Malachite is a copper carbonate mineral recognized by its distinctive banded pattern of light and dark green. Formed in copper deposits through the weathering of copper ore, malachite's swirling bands are created by variations in copper concentration during growth. Major sources include the Democratic Republic of Congo, Zambia, Australia, and Arizona.
Is malachite safe to handle?
Polished malachite is safe to handle and display. Raw malachite dust should not be inhaled (as with any mineral dust). We recommend polished specimens for home display, which showcase the banding pattern beautifully while being completely safe.
What makes malachite green?
Malachite's vivid green comes entirely from copper. The varying concentrations of copper carbonate create the characteristic banded pattern — darker bands have higher copper content. No two malachite specimens have identical banding.

I got this Malachite bracelet after recieving a fake malachite necklace. I can’t instantly tell this one is real. Glad I found an authentic website! Cute and grounding.
I love my Tumbled Malachite, it's the perfect size for a pocket or placing on the body during a healing meditation. Crystals.com has a lot of choices, big or small, flashy of sacred. And if you don't know what you're looking for, they can help you discover your next piece to add to your collection. Great info on the stones and crystals, too! My first and still my Go-To whether I'm looking for something specific or just browsing to see what pulls me to it.
Wish the stones were bigger and need a larger size for big wrists. However, still gorgeous
