AURICHALCITE Palermo Mine, N. Groton, 1.5 mm field of view. Aurichalcite "fur" on top of malachite.	Species: AURICHALCITE Locality: Palermo Mine, N. Groton, NH Specimen Size: 1.5 mm field of view. Aurichalcite "fur" on top of malachite. Field Collected: ex. Forrest Fogg ? Catalog No.: u2223 Notes: The EDS analysis of the malachite showed about a 5% zinc content, suggesting some Zn replacement of Cu. Therefore, aurichalcite, a zinc-coppper mineral, is a reasonable identification.
AURICHALCITE Stoddard Mine, Westmoreland, NH 3.2 mm field of view AURICHALCITE Stoddard Mine, Westmoreland, NH 1.0 mm field of view	Species: AURICHALCITE Locality: Stoddard Mine, Westmoreland, NH Specimen Size: 3.2 mm field of view and 1.0 mm FOV close-up Field Collected: Tom Mortimer Catalog No.: u2659 Notes: Reviewing my lot of un-cataloged Stoddard malachite micros collected years ago, I found this. Visually, a good match for aurichalcite. A couple of typical Stoddard Mine micro barite crystals are also on this specimen. Aurichalcite has not been previously reported from the Stoddard Mine.
