Chrysocolla is a blue green mineral with high copper ore content. The name chrysocolla was first used to name the stone by theophrastus, a greek philosopher and botanist, in 315 b. The name comes from the greek word chrysos meaning gold and kola which translates to glue. It earned part of its name kola as it was one of the first materials to be used by goldsmiths to weld precious metals together. Artists loved the stone and it was often used by renaissance painters ground down to a pigment to be used in their works of art.
