Cobalt Calcite (Sphaerocobaltite, CoCO3) - Natural mineral from Morocco
Morocco is one of the richest sources for numerous rare minerals. The Atlas Mountains and surrounding highland areas contain many unique mineral formations, extracted by hand mining methods. Cobalt Calcite (Sphaerocobaltite, CoCO3): Its crystal system is trigonal, characteristically vivid pink-red in colour due to its natural cobalt content.. Every specimen in the collection is unique — pieces of differing size, shape, and colouring make up the set.
Properties and uses
One of the most distinctive features of cobalt calcite (sphaerocobaltite) is its vivid pink-red colour, caused by the cobalt ion. Morocco is one of the most important sources for collection-quality specimens. Mineral specimen collections are widely used for educational purposes (mineralogy, geology), building crystal collections, meditation and spiritual purposes, and as home decoration elements. Each piece is natural — not dyed, not hand-shaped.
