--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
La malachite est une espèce minérale du groupe des carbonates minéraux et du sous-groupe des carbonates anhydres avec anions étrangers, de formule Cu2CO3(OH)2
La malachite est identifiée à son chrysocolle « qui a la nuance du blé en herbe, dans sa verdure la plus fraîche » selon Pline l'Ancien. Le nom de ce minéral vient du latin malachites déformation du grec ancien molochē (μολóχη), variante de malachē (μαλάχη), signifiant selon le contexte : « mollesse, voluptueux, efféminé », en allusion non à la couleur mais à la plante surnommée Mauve en raison de la mollesse de ses courbes.
Les cristaux de malachite sont aciculaires ou prismatiques, et peuvent atteindre 9 cm. Mais la malachite se trouve le plus souvent sous forme massive, botryoïdale, mamelonnée, fibreuse, stalactitique, en agrégats, grenue, terreuse, en rosette, en croûte, radiée, concrétionnée, cunéiforme, compacte, en enduit, ainsi qu'en pseudomorphose.
La malachite se forme dans la zone d'oxydation des sulfures de cuivre.
