Natural occurrence

Copper(II) chloride occurs naturally as the very rare anhydrous mineral tolbachite and the dihydrate eriochalcite. Both are found near fumaroles and in some copper mines. Mixed oxyhydroxide-chlorides like atacamite (Cu (OH) Cl) are more common, arising among Cu ore beds oxidation zones in arid climates.
