A rare mineral form containing crystalline structures, named after a court or legal jurisdiction, though its exact composition varies by geological source.
From 'court' + the mineralogical suffix '-zil-' or '-zilite' (possibly from a location name or researcher), following the naming convention for minerals to honor places or discoverers.
Mineral names are often wonderfully weird—'courtzilite' might commemorate a place where it was discovered or a geologist associated with courts, showing how scientists name new minerals after regions and people.
