About Chalcanthite
Formula:
CuSO4 · 5H2O
Colour:
Green, green blue, light blue, or dark blue; colourless to pale blue in transmitted light.
Lustre:
Vitreous, Resinous
Hardness:
2½
Specific Gravity:
2.286
Crystal System:
Triclinic
Member of:
Name:
From the Greek chalkos, "copper" and anthos, "flower."
Chalcanthite Group.
Copper analogue of siderotil and pentahydrite.
Chalcanthite is natural, water-soluble copper sulphate pentahydrate. It is a secondary mineral that is formed in arid climates or in rapidly oxidizing copper deposits. It is usually of post-mining formation, forming on mine walls and by the action of acidic surface waters on veins of copper ore.
CAUTION: Many, usually well-crystallised chalcanthite specimens offered for sale (e.g. on-line auctions), are artificially grown.

Interference Colours:
The colours simulate birefringence patterns seen in thin section under crossed polars. They do not take into account mineral colouration or opacity.
Michel-Levy Bar The default colours simulate the birefringence range for a 30 µm thin-section thickness. Adjust the slider to simulate a different thickness.
Grain Simulation You can rotate the grain simulation to show how this range might look as you rotated a sample under crossed polars.
