Formula: Cu2(CO3)(OH)2
Description: Green mineral druses associated with linarite both in slag and in rock are almost certain to be brochantite - sulfate assemblages hanging out together. Thus the "malachite" in the Simonoff photo appears to be brochantite. Malachite definitely occurs at the mine and is not uncommon. It is usually coatings on the rocks. Nothing impressive. I have not seen it in the slag. Steve Adams
