cuprodescloizite Definition

Cuprodescloizite is a rare boron silicate mineral. It is tetragonal in crystal system, and its chemical formula can vary but often includes elements such as magnesium, calcium, and sometimes beryllium. It is typically transparent to translucent and exhibits a pleochroic property, meaning it can appear to have different colors when viewed from different angles. It was first described in 2013 from a locality in Slovakia.
