Hi, Sojourner.

    I Googled nomenclature (naming) and searched within the results for
    "minerals, gems".  This site looked helpful: 

    http://tinyurl.com/52vpu 

    There is also a link on this site to common trade names for
    gemstones: 

    http://tinyurl.com/3srr8 

    I have no connection (besides Google) to this site, but there seems
    to be extensive information on these pages about common names and
    misnomers of materials which might be used in beads - I didn't see
    "red malachite" or "malachite, red". 

    Unfortunately, describing specific bead materials doesn't seem to
    follow through too well on those shopping pages that I saw at this
    site.  He does, however, have an extensive list of links to sites
    which may be helpful in other ways.  Some list catalogs, sources,
    have message/exchange lists, etc.  

Good luck to you.
