Blue Barite

Barite is recognized for its diverse colors and distinctive crystal shapes, making it a favorite among mineral collectors. This mineral stands out for its notable heaviness compared to other lighter minerals. Barite frequently replaces other minerals and can even substitute for organic materials like wood, shells, and fossils. In some cases, it forms tufaceous mounds through the accumulation of barium-rich hot spring deposits.
