Baryte specimens from Foss mine, these mineral specimens exhibit baryte with a fine crystalline texture, because of this, while most baryte specimens, while very dense, are quite soft, these particular specimens appear to be strong and robust. They are a pale white colour and in some cases, depending on the crystal orientation, specimens may also have a slight shimmer when viewed from certain light angles. Barite from Foss mine has been dated to the pre Cambrian period and forms part of the Ben Eagach formation. It is a dense mineral consisting mainly of barium sulfate, the name is derived from the Greek word, βαρύς which means heavy spar. These particular specimens are white in colour, opaque and have a fine, more massive crystalline texture than other baryte specimens in our range. Often found associated with hydrothermal mineralisation, these specimens are available in various sizes, supplied in a card tray with an information label.
