Rock salt is something most people only see ground up, so a solid halite cluster tends to start a conversation.
At about 740 grams this one has real heft, with blocky crystals grown together into a natural formation. Halite grows as cubes, and that blocky habit shows across the cluster. It is a good size for a desk or a mineral shelf and a thoughtful pick for anyone who teaches, studies or simply enjoys earth science. Since color varies widely in halite, judge the shade of this one by the photos. You get this exact halite cluster.
Dimensions run about 5.5 by 4.5 by 2.5 inches, and the weight is about 740 grams. A ruler photo is included.
Halite is natural rock salt, sodium chloride. It grows as isometric crystals, most often cubes, and although it is usually colorless or white, impurities and inclusions can tint it pink, red, blue, purple or gray. It is soft, about 2 to 2.5 on the Mohs scale, and it dissolves in water.
Stone Meaning: Halite is traditionally associated with cleansing and renewal.
