    Crown Emerald Copper, Desert Queen Dioptase!

    mineralcup.org/2025/vote/r4m02

    Please vote for the pyroelectric, HOT desert mama! It's so amazing it can look like moss but is electric if you heat it up 😲

    So, did someone call #electric #Mosstodon? The most arid deserts in the world have none, but grow moss-like dioptase to make up for it. The world's amazing, so spread the love & vote!
    Forbidden #broccoli or green #cauliflower?

    Dioptase was first mistaken to be emerald and gets its colour and toxicity from copper. Hence, Emerald Copper and Desert Emerald nicknames! Although it's toxic - no licking! 😅 - the vivid green tones make it great for healing & the heart. 💚💎🧡

    Here's some different mossy shapes to spot in different photos, if you want to look toward the ground instead of what you see in clouds! Thanks for voting!

    Please vote Dioptase the rare pyroelectric #TeamGreen #DesertEmerald through to go against #tugtupite in the Mineral Cup semi-finals!

    Emerald copper FTW 💚💎🧡
    We can get a #piezoelectricity versus #pyroelectricity battle for the ages! It's * #ELECTRIC * ;P

    Pressure or fire, heating things up to get zappadelic, gotta love that.

    Better yet:
    "As mentioned in the introduction, there is a profound relationship between pyro and piezo sensors: Every pyroelectric crystal is also a piezoelectric crystal (but not vice versa)."
    Heating leads to expansion of the crystal lattice, and a measurable electric voltage.

    (After the last two days seeing mass vote stuffing tampering attempts, they're auditing preliminary results, so please rope in new folks to vote for this little toxic pyro guy instead! 🍀 Thank you for voting!)
