The Grandview Trail was built in 1892-1893 to service the mine to haul ore out of the canyon by pack train. The ore consisted mostly of copper sulfate minerals including cyanotrichite, brochantite, and chalcoalumite, along with copper carbonates such as azurite and malachite. Like many historic mines in Grand Canyon, including the Orphan Mine, the mineralized zone is in a breccia pipe, which is a cylindrical mass of highly fractured rock. In the Grand Canyon region, breccia pipes formed from the collapse of solution caverns in the Redwall Limestone. The highly porous brecciated rock in these features was mineralized by copper- and\u002For uranium-bearing fluids.

Anorthosite is an uncommon rock on Earth, but is relatively common in the Adirondacks.  Adirondacks anorthosite has been metamorphosed (hence “metanorthosite”), and in many places the rocks have blackish streaks representing foliation.

It is a Great combo piece containing 5 minerals. The most surprisingly spectacular are the blood red Wulfenite crystals in a prismatic habit, up to 1 mm in size sitting on a carpet of green velvet Malachite. Wulfenite is rare in Katanga (only 2 valid localities for this huge province) and in Musonoi they are at their best. They are associated with well terminated and bright yellow Kasolite crystals reaching 2 mm in size. Some are showing phantom growth. Also present are green, transparent platy Torbernite crystals reaching 4 mm on edge. The edges of the Torbernite are worth a closer look - some of them are the matrix for very small Guilleminite crystal clusters. Fantastic under the scope, you can look for hours to all what is hiding on this specimen. This specimen was recovered during the removal of the U-dump in the early 90�s. Musonoi has ceased producing minerals since then. Musonoi is the Type Locality for Guilleminite. Take advantage of this offer because nothing is coming out of Katanga anymore since more than 15 years, except for Malachite and Chrysocolla.\u003C\u002Fdd>\u003C\u002Fdl>\u003C\u002Fdd>\u003C\u002Fdl>",{"id":1381,"source_url":1382,"license_code":693,"credit_html":1383,"title":1384,"description":1385,"author":733,"original_width":776,"original_height":1004},57682,"https:\u002F\u002Fcommons.wikimedia.org\u002F?curid=10457540","Robert M.

At its simplest, a mineral is a naturally-occurring solid chemical.  Currently, there are over 5600 named and described minerals - about 200 of them are common and about 20 of them are very common.  Mineral classification is based on anion chemistry.  Major categories of minerals are: elements, sulfides, oxides, halides, carbonates, sulfates, phosphates, and silicates.\n\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The carbonate minerals all contain one or more carbonate (CO3-2) anions.\n\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Malachite and azurite are attractive, richly colored copper hydroxy-carbonate minerals.   Malachite has a nice green color - its formula is Cu2CO3(OH)2.  Azurite has a dark, rich blue color - its formula, Cu3(CO3)2(OH)2, is very close to malachite.  The blue color of azurite is from Cu+, while the green color of malachite is from Cu+2.  Azurite & malachite almost invariably occur together, and are telling indicators of copper in the field, even in very small quantities.  Blue azurite tends to crystallize first, and can convert to green malachite.  Some azurite-malachite specimens are solid enough to be cut and polished as semi-precious stone.\n\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The sample seen here is on an ore pile at the Continental Mine (= Continental Pit) in Butte, Montana.  The town is known as the “Richest Hill on Earth” and \"The Mining City\".  The Butte Mining District has produced gold, silver, copper, molybdenum, manganese, and other metals.\n\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The area's bedrock consists of the Butte Quartz Monzonite (a.k.a. Butte Pluton), which is part of the Boulder Batholith.  The Butte Quartz Monzonite (\"BQM\") formed 76.3 million years ago, during the mid-Campanian Stage in the Late Cretaceous.  BQM rocks have been intruded and altered by hydrothermal veins containing valuable metallic minerals - principally sulfides.  The copper mineralization has been dated to 62-66 million years ago, during the latest Maastrichtian Stage (latest Cretaceous) and Danian Stage (Early Paleocene).  In the supergene enrichment zone of the area, the original sulfide mineralogy has been altered.\n\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The Continental Mine targets a low-grade copper and molybdenum deposit on the eastern side of the Continental Fault, a major Basin & Range normal fault in the Butte area with about 3500 feet of offset.  The mine's rocks consists of disseminated copper sulfides plus copper- and molybdenum-bearing hydrothermal veins that intrude the BQM.  Minerals at the site include chalcopyrite, molybdenite, malachite, azurite, tenorite, and cuprite.  The latter four minerals are secondary copper minerals, produced by alteration of the primary copper sulfides.\n\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>When I visited in 2010, the Continental Mine was making 50,000 to 52,000 tons of ore each day.  This mine can operate down to an ore grade of 0.1% copper.  Most of the mineralization is disseminated copper, but veins are also present.  Two stages of mineralization occurred in the Butte area - a porphyry copper system and a main stage system with large veins.  The bottom of the porphyry copper system is ~ less than 12,800 feet below the surface.  Veins peter out at 5600 to 5800 feet below the surface.  At the Continental Mine, veins are small - they're veinlets less than 6 inches wide.\n\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Chr>\n\u003Cp>Photo gallery of malachite:\nwww.mindat.org\u002Fgallery.php?min=2550\n\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Chr>\n\u003Cp>Photo gallery of azurite:\n\u003C\u002Fp>\nwww.mindat.org\u002Fgallery.php?min=447",3283,3000,{"id":1561,"source_url":1562,"license_code":754,"credit_html":1563,"title":1564,"description":1557,"author":835,"original_width":1565,"original_height":1566},82338,"https:\u002F\u002Fcommons.wikimedia.org\u002F?curid=99677208","James St. John, via \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fcommons.wikimedia.org\u002F?curid=99677208\" rel=\"noopener\">Wikimedia Commons\u003C\u002Fa>","Azurite-malachite-tenorite in quartz monzonite (Continental Pit, Butte, Montana, USA) 8.jpg",2542,2000,{"id":1568,"source_url":1569,"license_code":693,"credit_html":1570,"title":1571,"description":1572,"author":733,"original_width":776,"original_height":1425},83720,"https:\u002F\u002Fcommons.wikimedia.org\u002F?curid=10162016","Robert M.

The gemmy, botryoidal, willemite is unique and beautiful, and comes in this style only from Tsumeb.\u003C\u002Fdd>\u003C\u002Fdl>\u003C\u002Fdd>\u003C\u002Fdl>",{"id":1574,"source_url":1575,"license_code":880,"credit_html":1576,"title":1577,"description":1578,"author":884,"original_width":885,"original_height":886},84131,"https:\u002F\u002Fcommons.wikimedia.org\u002F?curid=188117943","Slashme, via \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fcommons.wikimedia.org\u002F?curid=188117943\" rel=\"noopener\">Wikimedia Commons\u003C\u002Fa>","Tirolit Malachit Azurit Chrysokoll 33137 1.jpg","Tyrolite, Malachite, Azurite and Chrysocolla from Villamanín, Leon, Spain. 99,4 g - Maßstab: mm",{"id":1580,"source_url":1581,"license_code":693,"credit_html":1582,"title":1583,"description":1584,"author":733,"original_width":1585,"original_height":741},84142,"https:\u002F\u002Fcommons.wikimedia.org\u002F?curid=10153192","Robert M.

before any Greek scholar wrote down its name, malachite was being mined for copper. The Great Orme mines in Britain were worked extensively about 3,800 years ago, in the European Bronze Age[1].\n\nThe Egyptians prized a different use. Ground malachite became a green pigment that lined the eyes of the dead — a colour associated with resurrection and fertility[2].\n\nPliny the Elder gave the mineral its first written name in 79 CE: *molochitus*[3]. The word came from the Greek *malachí* — *mallows* — for the stone's resemblance to mallow leaves. The modern spelling *malachites* had taken hold by 1661 at the latest[4].\n\nGround malachite served as a green pigment in European painting, until synthetic alternatives largely replaced it around 1800[5].\n\nIn the 18th and 19th centuries, malachite found its decorative peak in imperial Russia. Tsars panelled their palaces with it and commissioned vases, tabletops, and architectural elements[6]. The Hermitage in Saint Petersburg holds a *Malachite Room* whose centrepiece is an enormous carved vase[7].","claude-opus-4-7","1.7.0","2026-06-01 15:20:25",{"markdown":1992,"model_version":1988,"prompt_version":1989,"reviewed_at":1993},"Malachite's days as a working copper ore are mostly behind it. The mineral remains classified as a minor copper ore where deposits are rich enough, but the dominant modern use is decorative[1].\n\nWhere malachite is still processed for copper, modern operations use hydrometallurgy — extracting metal with water-based chemistry — rather than traditional smelting[2].\n\nCut shapes of the green stone go into vases, inlaid works, jewellery, and carved ornamental objects[3].\n\nNotable deposits include Nizhny Tagil in Russia, Chessy in France, Tsumeb in Namibia, and Bisbee in Arizona[4].","2026-06-01 15:21:38"]
