(med) Aurichalcite, Zinc, copper carbonate (Zn, Cu)₅ (CO₃)₂ (OH)₆ (Yeshi 2018). Named after Aurichalcum (Latinized version of the Greek "mountain copper"), yellow copper or brass, in allusion to its copper and zinc content, the constituents of brass. A secondary mineral in copper and zinc deposits, aurichalcite is typically found as blue or green crusts or mats of tiny acicular crystals, often as feathery, tufted, druzes (mindat.org).
