L'azurite cristallise dans le système monoclinique (cristaux à faciès très variés). Minéral secondaire, elle se forme par altération des sulfures et des sulfosels de cuivre; par conséquent, on la trouve également sous forme de patines et d'incrustations dans les zones supérieures des gisements cuprifères. 6, record 1, French, - azurite
