kaneel, ook bekend as cinnabar of cinnabar, is 'n soort sulfiedmineraal en behoort aan die trigonale kristalstelsel. Die kristalle is in die vorm van klein romboëders, dik plate, en kolomme. Hulle word algemeen in veelvuldige digte korrels gesien, digte blokke of korsagtige aggregate. Diamant glans, deursigtig tot ondeursigtig, hardheid van 2-2.5. Sy […]

Perspective stone, also known as green copper mine, English name is Dioptase, derived from Greek, Dia means “deurskynend”, Optasia means “sien”, indicating that this mineral can see its cleavage surface through the crystal, so It is called a perspective stone. See-through stone is a kind of water-containing copper silicate, belonging to the trigonal crystal system, […]
Wit looderts, die Engelse naam Cerussite, is afgelei van die Latynse Cerussa, wat beteken “wit lood”. Wit lood is 'n soort karbonaatmineraal. Die samestelling daarvan bevat dikwels 'n mengsel van deeltjies van loodsulfied en silwersulfied: dit behoort aan die ortorombiese kristalstelsel, en die kristalle is in die vorm van plaat, […]
Azurite, whose English name is Azurite, comes from the word Azure, wat beteken “blou”. Azurite is also called azurite in China, which is the name of a blue pigment. Azurite is a water-containing copper carbonate mineral and belongs to the monoclinic crystal system. The crystals are in the form of short column, column or thick […]
Fish eye stone, the English name Apophyllite, is derived from the Greek words Apos and Phyllazein, betekenis “deciduous”, because this mineral will flake off when heated in a blowpipe flame, so it is intended.

Both anatase and brookite belong to the oxide minerals of titanium, which are two homogenous and polymorphic variants of rutile minerals. Anatase is a very rare mineral. Its composition often contains impurities such as ferric oxide and tantalum, niobium, tin, and manganese. It belongs to the tetragonal crystal system. Transparent to opaque, hardness is 5.5-6.0. […]
Realgar, also known as cockscomb stone, the English name is Realgar; orpiment, the English name is Orpiment or Auripigment, are two minerals that often coexist, algemeen bekend as “mandarin duck minerals.” Realgar is a short columnar crystal, a wedge-shaped pointed head, and a rhombus cross-section. It is also common in dense massive and granular aggregates, […]
Barite is a barium sulfate sand mineral. Its chemical composition often contains strontium, calcium and lead. Dus, there are strontium barite, lead barite and other qualitative variants. Barite belongs to the orthorhombic crystal system. The crystals are in the form of thick plates, common granular, massive, knopvormig, fibrous clusters and clusters. Barite has glass luster […]
