Aurichalcite, yellow copper or brass, is named after Aurichalcum (Latinized version of the Greek "mountain copper") in allusion to its copper and zinc content, the constituents of brass.

The Shel gong mentiones indian (or chinese ?) as well as tibetan brass, each having a male and female type. Brass is an alloy of zinc (ti tsha) and copper (zangs). The different types are distinguished according to colour and the respective ore used for copper and zinc. See also li and 'khro for brass, and 'khar ba for bronze.
Aurichalcite, yellow copper or brass, is named after Aurichalcum (Latinized version of the Greek "mountain copper") 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, often feathery, tufted crystals (mindat.org).
The indian name rīti can denote pale brass, iron rust or score of any metal upon exposure to heat and air (widomlib.org)
