Copper Minerals in crystallized form: Azurite, Cuprite, Malachite
Copper and copper minerals in their natural state
Dendritic crystals can be compared to calcium depositions on corals
Salt – a corroding preservative?
Interesting display showcase in the common corridor
Further exploration: synthetic crystallization
Synthetic ruby produced from flame fusion – can Aluminium Oxide and Chromium Oxide (components of ruby) be dissolved, precipitated in dendritic forms observed in Copper and salt crystallization, and the flame fused into synthetic dendritic rubies??
