The source recounts the traditional use of malachite since ancient times in healing practices and as a protective amulet. It also states that in ancient Egypt malachite was used as eye make-up.

In lithotherapy traditions, malachite is associated with concentration, meditation, dream interpretation, positive energy, expression, persuasion and energetic balance. The source also says it should be worn alone because it is believed to absorb the energy of nearby stones.

The source attributes numerous physical and psychological effects to malachite, including pain and inflammation relief, effects on rheumatism, osteoarthritis, immunity, pancreas, heart, teeth, pregnancy and childbirth, asthma, arthritis, tumours, epilepsy, cholera, fractures, burns, colic, migraines, colds, stomach ulcers, depression and psychosis. These therapeutic claims are not medically or scientifically established. Malachite does not treat these conditions and must not replace medical or mental-health care, including during pregnancy.

Cleansing and recharging: the source recommends brief cleaning with pure, tap or demineralised water without salt, or fumigation, followed by traditional recharging in an amethyst geode or gentle morning sunlight.
