Look for flaws along with inclusions. Use a magnifying glass with at least 10x magnification to examine the Malachite carefully. Look for specks and blemishes, as they form with minute particles of other material. These flaws are strong evidence that a Malachite is genuine. Lab-created (fake) Malachite have no inclusions of this nature, and neither do natural Malachite, but if you find flaws, then your Malachite is genuine.

Examine the gemstone for air bubbles. Essentially, lab-created Malachite are glass that has undergone a process similar to that which forms natural Malachite. Since they are made of glass, they retain miniscule air bubbles after formation. If there are bubbles within the Malachite, it is not genuine. Be sure to inspect your Malachite from every angle by turning it over. There is a possibility that bubbles of air will only be evident from a single angle.

Look at how light is reflected by the Malachite. Turn off all the lights and shine your flashlight on the Malachite. If it is genuine, it will only reflect light of the same hue as itself. If it is a fake, made of glass, it will reflect colors other than the natural color of the gem.
