Bladed Barite Crystal Cluster on Iron-Rich Matrix — Nevada — 1.1 oz

This is the exact one-of-one specimen shown in the photographs. It presents a dramatic arrangement of translucent white bladed barite crystals emerging from dark, iron-oxide-rich matrix, with multiple upright blades and contrasting earthy surface coatings.

  • Mineral: Bladed barite crystal cluster
  • Weight: 1.1 oz (31 g)
  • Locality: Nevada, USA — reported
  • Geological age: 100+ million years — reported estimate; exact formation age not independently verified
  • Crystal habit: Intergrown bladed to tabular crystals with pronounced lengthwise striations
  • Formation: Barite typically crystallizes from barium-bearing hydrothermal fluids in fractures and open spaces. Iron-rich material can coat crystal surfaces and matrix during or after mineral formation.

  • Treatment: No treatment reported.

Collector appeal: A small but exceptionally sculptural barite piece with strong contrast between translucent blades and dark earthy matrix—ideal for a focused Nevada mineral display.

Collector Rarity Index™: 7/10 — Rare. Based on locality, crystal form, specimen quality, mineral association, and current market availability.

Metaphysical note: In crystal traditions, barite is often associated with grounding, reflection, and steady focus. This is spiritual folklore only and is not medical advice.
