    I recently went to an estate sale of a rock hound and scored a piece of malachite it is stunning. Thanks for posting the video and teaching me more about it.

    My favorite rock. It is what got me interested in rocks and minerals many years ago and why I became a lapidary. I always wash my hands after touching any rock or mineral unless it is polished.

    Given its broad application, everyone should understand GEOLOGY - therefore this video has been indexed and a link added by DR-KNOW / iq-2k Information Services - roughly 850 videos have indexed for this series
