- During the early 19th century, it was also known as chessylite, after the type locality at Chessy near Lyon, France.
- The mineral, a basic carbonate with the chemical formula Cu322, has been known since ancient times, and was mentioned in Pliny the Elder's Natural History under the Greek name kuanos and the Latin name caeruleum.
- Copper gives it its deep blue color.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Azurite article was read about 70,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 63 and blocks with 70: each hit it takes is cut by 28 %.
