 | "From the Phillip Greybill Collection. An excellent cabinet specimen. Atacamite is an unusual and attractive halide mineral. Atacamite forms in arid climates where copper minerals are exposed to oxidation. The Atacama Desert, from where atacamite gets its name, is one of the driest places in the world. Atacamite has a deep green color and is often associated with many other rare and colorful minerals such as chyrsocolla. Atacamite is a wonderful and interesting addition to someones collect."
