Hello Saddam,

A couple things you'll need to do to get a positive ID on this:
- pictures in natural light - indoor lighting is very difficult to see crystal structure and true colors
- closer pics and less blurry
- try to keep a solid background, there's too much going on with that red & black background you have there.
- if you can tell us the country and general area where this was found, that would also be helpful

If you can do all that I'd be glad to help if I can! Does look possibly like a type of copper based mineral, but it could also be several other things.

My very respected i got found this stone near to a very historical site. This rock was found in the ancient populous ruins.And i am sending information about that site that is.


The*Buddhist*monastery was founded in the 1st century CE, and was in use until the 7th century. The complex is regarded by archaeologists as being particularly representative of the architecture of Buddhist monastic centers from its era.*Takht-i-Bahi was listed as a*UNESCO World Heritage Site*in 1980.


The word Takht-i-Bahi may have different explanations. Local believes that site got its name from two wells on the hill or the springs nearby. In Persian,*Takht*means "top" or "throne" while*bahimeans "spring" or "water". When combined together its meaning is*Spring from the Top*or*High Spring, and there were two springs on the top of mountains. Another meaning suggested is*Throne of Origin. Here is map of that site.

Nice map. Minedat search does not have much to say for that region. Better pictures, as stdenis said, would be helpful. Like others here I agree its a cooper mineral due to coloration with some crystalization that is likely quartz. As hvacker said I to suspect the green mineral is chrysocolla.

no offense, and sorry to waste your time, but there's no way I'm clicking on those videos sorry :D Too many nasty viruses out there lol

Plus, videos are terrible to ID with. Too much movement and can't see structure.

Please take still photos, natural light, close-up, etc. Otherwise I won't be able to help you.
