Cerussite on Barite with Galena – Morocco Mineral Specimen
This striking 1.2” x 1.2” specimen from Morocco features gemmy cerussite crystals perched on creamy barite with metallic galena at the base—a stunning tri-mineral combination that highlights the unique oxidation-zone chemistry of lead-rich deposits. Cerussite, a lead carbonate, forms through the weathering of galena and is prized by collectors for its high luster and delicate twinning.
Cerussite is also frequently searched for its metaphysical associations with grounding, clarity, and transformation—often linked to releasing energetic baggage and adapting to change.
A vibrant miniature that balances science and symbolism.
