La paramelaconita es un mineral de la clase de los minerales óxidos de composición Cu1+2Cu2+2O3.Fue descubierto en 1891 en una mina cercana a Bisbee en el condado de Cochise (Arizona, Estados Unidos). George Augustus Koenig le asignó su nombre utilizando el prefijo griego παρά (para, «cercano») y «melaconita» (otro nombre de la tenorita, CuO), por su composición cercana a la de este mineral.
