For the Indians, chrysocolla was the philosopher's stone because anyone who wore it could establish a good relationship between mind and body.


Chrysocolla is a mineral stone whose color varies from green to turquoise. It forms mineral aggregates that have a kidney- or grape-like, stalactite-shaped or granular shape. It also occurs in the form of crusts, layers and tiny crystals. Its name comes from the Greek words “chrysos” for gold and “kolla” for glue, which then translates into gold glue. The mineral received this name because of its ability to combine individual gold spheres during granulation, an ancient goldsmith technique. Synonyms include copper pebbles, copper green, mountain green or pebble malachite.

Chrysocolla was already revered as a stone of hope in ancient times. It is said to be a wise stone because it can lead you to compromise and thereby protect you from psychological injuries. It is said that even Cleopatra always carried chrysocolla with her because it was said to calm the mind and make her more tolerant and sensitive. In ancient Egypt it was considered the softer brother of turquoise. The name of Chrysocolla is derived from the Greek “chrysos” (in German: gold) and “kolla” (in German: to stick). Its name came about because it was often used as gold glue in goldsmiths' art. As a copper mineral, chrysocolla is also used as a copper ore.

Chrysocolla creates balance, has a calming effect on the nerves and relieves excessive tension or stress. In this way it calms the mind and can also turn anger or hatred into its opposite. Through this spiritual balance, Chrysocolla provides warmth, tolerance and serenity. The healing stone also helps to keep a cool head in necessary situations. Through increased intuition and patience, decisions can be made much better and with sustainability.

It gives us a loving relationship with ourselves and those around us. Chrysocolla allows us to keep a clear head in all situations and thus harmonizes our lives. It leads to more initiative, promotes harmony and improves trust in your own body and instincts.


Chrysocolla is an important main stone for the zodiac signs Taurus, Cancer and Libra. This healing stone relieves Taurus' anxiety and increases their connection to nature. Cancer receives improved imagination and intuition and more tolerance. It gives Libra inner peace and brings balance and tolerance.


Works best through the heart chakra, with a tendency towards the throat chakra and third eye.
Wear it as a pendant at heart level or carry it in your pocket. Do not use as healing stone water because of the high copper content.

"A stone is the condensed history of the universe"

~Art of Nature Berlin~Azurit – origin and history
On an astrological level, it is associated with the zodiac signs Capricorn and Virgo. The azurite should definitely be discharged overnight in a dry bowl of hematite tumbled stones once a month. Charging is not necessary as deep blue azurites are true bundles of energy. Only lighter azurites should be charged in the sun or in rock crystals.

Azurite has been known for more than 4,500 years. Even back then, the stone was sought after in a wide variety of cultures around the world. Azurite used to be called citramarine because it came “from this side of the sea”.

The main suppliers of azurite in ancient times were countries such as Andalusia, Armenia and Cyprus. The mineral was used in powder form by the Egyptians, Persians and Romans as eye makeup. During the Ming Dynasty, the ancient Chinese used azurite to color their beautiful and legendary vases.

However, azurite gained particular importance in painting in the Middle Ages in Europe and also in the Renaissance - in monasteries the valuable blue pigment was used for small picture motifs and calligraphic manuscripts. Even the famous painter Michelangelo used azurite for the bright blue robe of Mary Magdalene in his Roman Entombment.

The healing stone was given the mineral name azurite, which is still valid today, in 1824 by the French mineralogist François Beudant. Above all, this was a monument to the beautiful azure color of the mineral.

Azurite is also known under the names armenite, mountain blue, blue malachite, chessylite, copper lapis, copper blue, copper glaze and glaze malachite.
Azurite - occurrence and formation

The azurite forms secondarily through deposits and weathering. Where azurite occurs, the rock contains copper. Azurite is formed in the oxidation zone of so-called sulfidic copper deposits through the weathering of chalcopyrite and other copper sulfides or from general copper ores.

Azurite is very often a component of copper pitch ore and, depending on where it is found, also occurs in paragenesis with other minerals (e.g. anglesite, brochantite, calcite, chrysocolla, dolomite, smithsonite).

As an anhydrous carbonate, azurite is more common than other gemstones. Oxygen-rich water in the form of seepage or groundwater is necessary for its formation, because azurite is only formed when a carbon dioxide molecule is released at the same time. Azurite is similar in composition to malachite, which is why the pseudomorphosis from malachite to azurite can often be observed.

Azurite is very common and can be found in many places. According to 2014, around 5,000 locations are known. In ancient times, Andalusia, Armenia and Cyprus were the main mining areas for azurite. Until the middle of the 17th century, Hungary was the most important mining region in Europe. Chessy near Lyon (France), Mechernich (German Vulkaneifel) and the mines near Alghero (Sardinia) were considered suppliers of azurite until the end of the 19th century.

In addition to its historical site of Mechernich, where the azurite was precipitated by sedimentation in the Buntsandsteine, the mineral can also be found in Germany in the Black Forest, the Thuringian-Franconian low mountain range, the Spessart, the Harz Mountains, the Erzgebirge and the Odenwald.

Tsumeb in Namibia is also a well-known discovery site due to its extraordinary azurite finds with crystals up to 20 centimeters long. Crystals up to 7 centimeters long have been found in Morocco (Touissite). Crystal rosettes with diameters of up to 13 centimeters can also be found in the Chinese province of Guangdong.

Further deposits of azurite can also be found in Austria, Switzerland, Afghanistan, Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Bolivia, Chile, Bulgaria, the Democratic Republic of Congo (Zaire), Iran, Greece, in Japan, Ireland, Kazakhstan, Canada, Madagascar, Mexico, Mongolia, Norway, Peru, the Philippines, Poland, Portugal, Russia, Sweden, Serbia, Zimbabwe, in South Africa, Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Turkey, Hungary as well as in the USA and the United Kingdom (UK).

Mining azurite does not make sense or be of economic importance at every site. The quality and size of the deposit as well as the location of the sites and the environmental conditions prevailing there are crucial for mining.
Properties and effects of azurite

Azurite is assigned to the monoclinic crystal system, is transparent to opaque and completely fissile. The healing stone comes in several colors of blue tones that can vary from light to deep dark blue (azure blue) to night blue to almost black. The shine of azurite is reminiscent of the appearance of glass.
