Green is common in nature, blue is not. So, when choosing a secondary mineral of copper carbonate, they chose the more rare, beautiful azurite. Malachite has enough press already as it is.

A great video! But so many very extreme minerals are not described! I have been grinding minerals myself for over 30 years and became aware of the Sugelight because of back pain. He helped me with the process of processing pain. As luck would have it, my brother and a friend imported sugelite from South Africa. So I first started cutting Sugelite over 30 years ago. I have found pieces THANKS to dear and warm South Africans to cut pieces with Rhodochrosite, to cut Top Richterite/Sugehlite that weigh 1.80kg and more. I would also like to mention the clinochlore from Lake Baikal, which I ground in top quality pieces weighing over 30kg, which Russians bought back. And at the moment I'm finishing the 58kg rain obsidian from California, which actually belongs in a museum. Thanks for the good video, although there are many other minerals in there that would never be mentioned. The Mother Earth on which you are allowed to BE is a "casket" which we as profit-oriented entities will NEVER understand, understand and, above all, control! It is its own identity with millions of facets that can change within a few moments. But it is the inability of “humanity” to accept this fact! We misuse our apparently divine power to be master of everything!!! Which is why a reset about matter seems necessary. Too bad!!! THX 👍👍👍👍👍👃👃👃

Most Tigereye has inclusions of asbestos, known as rutile. It's what gives the mineral its chatoyant shimmer. Azurite is also found as a companion mineral to Malachite. All of the stones, featured in this video, are MINERALS, not rocks. "Celestite" is pronounced Suh-LESS-tite, not SELL-us-tite.
