This vanadinite formation has red to orange hexagonal crystals sitting on natural matrix, a color that stands out in any mineral display.

Vanadinite grows as short, six sided prisms with flat tops, and the sharp geometry is easy to see even without a loupe. The color is natural, not dyed, and it stands out strongly in a display case, on a desk or on a collector's shelf, especially under a small spotlight. Vanadinite from Mibladen, Morocco is well known among collectors, though the locality of this piece is not recorded. It makes a memorable gift for a mineral collector or a science lover. Vanadinite contains lead, so it is a display specimen, and the safety note below covers simple handling. This is the exact specimen shown.

The specimen is about 3 by 1 by 3 inches and weighs about 0.35 kilograms.

About Vanadinite

Vanadinite is lead chlorovanadate, roughly 73 percent lead, and an ore of vanadium. It forms bright red, orange red, brown or yellow hexagonal prisms. It is soft, about 3 to 4 on the Mohs scale, and its crystals are brittle, so specimens are best kept in a display rather than handled often.

Stone Meaning: Vanadinite is traditionally associated with motivation and focus.
