Malachite, North Wheal Basset, Illogan, Cornwall, England
Clusters of botryoidal malachite crystals. Malachite is a common hydrated copper carbonate secondary mineral, formed by the near surface weathering of primary sulphide minerals. Although malachite is not an important copper ore mineral, it can be a good indicator of copper sulphide minerals at depth

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of malachite, a common secondary mineral found in North Wheal Basset, Illogan, Cornwall, England. The clusters of botryoidal malachite crystals depicted here are truly a sight to behold. Malachite forms as a result of the weathering process that occurs near the surface of primary sulphide minerals containing copper. While not considered an important copper ore mineral itself, malachite serves as an excellent indicator for the presence of valuable copper sulphide minerals at deeper levels within the earth. Its distinctive globular formations exhibit various shades ranging from vibrant green and yellow to subtle brown, orange, and grey tones. This stunning specimen captured by Andy Tindle beautifully represents the geological wonders found in English Cornish mines. The intricate patterns and rich colors displayed in this print offer viewers a glimpse into nature's artistic prowess. With its unique composition consisting of hydrated copper carbonate (Cu2CO3 (OH)), this malachite exemplifies both scientific significance and aesthetic allure. As you admire this remarkable image from Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, let your imagination wander through ancient mining tunnels while marveling at the natural splendor hidden beneath our feet
