This barite is known as Barite (Two Generations).  As you can see the core of this specimen exhibits a translucent gemmy core that contrasts nicely with the bright white, ivory colored band at the edges.  The barite crystal structure  is so amazing.  The radiating clusters of tabular, spear-like, bi-colored crystals gives this piece an exquisite  3-dimensional appearance.  Perfect to add to a mineral collection and to use for display.

Metaphysical practitioners believe that barite helps to heal the Earth, creates the initiative to pursue dreams without restraint, facilitates independence, and enhances friendship, harmony, and love.
