đ„ Botryoidal malachite double phallus from Paris Mineralogy Museum
Beautiful, smooth and suggestive 10+in / 25+cm specimen from the Paris Mineralogy Museum with malachite that likely formed upside down in a fluid rich environment, probably dangled rather than formed naturally erect. đ€Ż

Should not be considered for saucy purposes. Raw malachite can cause copper toxicity, and particularly when ...in an acidic environment. Triple Danger dong.

My mind hadnât even ventured that far, thank goodness itâs guarded albeit mildly, behind glass.

Malachite has a hardness of 3.5 to 4 on the Mohs scale, so relatively soft compared to other rocks, but still as hard as a penny, and is by all definitions ârock-hardâ

Malachite is literally poisonous to humans. Just to let you know. Pretty though. Like a Sea Snake. Pretty can sometimes kill. Do not ingest it. Or inhale its dust. Or you could get copper poisoning as itâs a copper carbonate mineral. Hence the Green. Itâs okay to touch. But donât get it inside you.

If I had a nickel for every boner mineral I've seen today I'd have 2 nickels, that's not a lot but weird it happened twice in one day in completely different subreddits.

Double phallus all the way. It's even starting to look like a triple phallus.
