Atacamite Cu2Cl(OH)3 - 03.DA.10a (Strunz)(from Atacama’s Desert, Chile)Is a copper halide mineral with a fantastic color dark emerald-green to blackish green in some sides. This miniature has a perfect vitreous prismatic crystal but I don’t have a good loupe for this reason I can’t show you…you must imagine it jaja. This Atacamite is from my country, exactly from Desert of Atacama, the driest desert in the world, for this reason it is formed from primary copper minerals in the oxidation or weathering zone of arid climates. -- source link
