This is chalcanthite, a water-soluble sulfate of rich electric blue crystals. The color derives from copper, the name from Greek meaning copper flower. Chalcanthite is commonly found growing on the walls of old copper mines where ground water contacts oxidized copper, as the water evaporates it leaves behind chalcanthite crystals.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe elegance of the English-Italian Hand is a perfect vehicle to celebrate such a rich mineral. I have no special notes regarding this lettering art, other than it gave me the opportunity to express my joy of such a kind gift! This chalcanthite now enjoys a prominent spot in my mineral collection.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e~2012, Don Marsh~\u003cbr\u003e©2012 Don Marsh\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Don Marsh","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42417881874526,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/7828\/2846\/files\/Chalcanthite__2012_Don_Marsh_93210d17-ed80-41a3-a2d3-3e69027bda05.jpg?v=1769216535","url":"https:\/\/donmarsharchive.com\/products\/chalcanthite-english-italian-hand","provider":"Don Marsh","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
