Incredible fire-red crystallized vanadinite – 51.31 g –...

Here is a luminous and expressive piece, where Vanadinite reveals its chromatic richness. The mahogany-red crystals, geometrically well-formed, rise in dense reliefs on a light gangue, creating a natural play of light and contrast. This type of formation comes from the famous Moroccan deposits, particularly the Mibladen region, now regarded as one of the world’s premier Vanadinite hotspots. Discovered in the 19th century, Vanadinite takes its name from the vanadium it contains, a chemical element first identified in these colored crystals. Valued as much by collectors as by mineralogy enthusiasts, this stone is renowned for its hexagonal crystals with an intense luster and for its coloration ranging from deep red to orange-brown. Technical characteristics: Weight: 51.31 grams Dimensions: 44.6 mm x 46.1 mm x 30 mm Origin: Morocco Color: Mahogany red with orange reflections Crystallization: Well-formed hexagonal prismatic crystals, shiny Rock matrix: White to beige gangue, punctuated by microcrystals on the periphery Special features: Beautiful density of crystals covering the entire surface Intense reflections under direct light, highlighting the sharp edges Natural aesthetic contrast between the light matrix and the red crystals Conclusion: This specimen perfectly illustrates the quality of Moroccan Vanadinites, both in its brilliance and in the balance of its crystallization. It will naturally find its place in a serious collection, a minerals showcase, or any display wishing to highlight the geometric beauty of natural formations.
