Highlights
BBNW05- Nice iceberg blue crystal blades of blue barite in a matrix of manganese oxide and limonite. This specimen weighs 34 grams and measures approximately 58mm X 35mm X 11mm.
This material is mined at Sidi Lahcen, Nador, Nador Province, Oriental Region, Morocco.
In the mid 70's a man apparently collected from this site, then nothing more was collected until it was accidentally re discovered in 2012. Unfortunately, most all specimens will have one or more broken crystals which is mainly due to unskilled miners extracting the barite. Alot of the pieces have red-brown or orange gossan overgrowth where they had contact with the top part of the pocket where they were extracted. I think the contrast of the reds, browns and orange with the blue barite is beautiful.
The colors of the barite from this mine range from an opaque white to a vivid blue; and some of the crystals have inclusions of hematite or limonite which tint the crystals brown to red brown.
