Definition
A rare mineral containing iron, sulfur, and water, typically found in areas with acid mine drainage and oxidized mineral deposits.
Etymology
Named after Copiapó, a city in Chile where the mineral was first discovered, combined with the mineralogical suffix '-ite' meaning mineral.
Kelly Says
This mineral is a time capsule of chemical reactions—it forms in the aftermath of mining operations when sulfide minerals react with water and oxygen, creating entirely new minerals that wouldn't exist in nature without human activity.
