I watched some video a while back about how these formed and I can't remember exactly but there were different chemicals present when the barite formed here and stunted the growth of the barite giving the crystals the distinct rose shapes. The barite in my area looks way different! When you compare the two you can totally see what the video was talking about. Sorry I can't remember the details lol
Yeah, I noticed in some of your videos on how different the barite looks, and also how large some of the blades of barite are in your area. Truly amazing stuff!
Thanks! It's always a bit of a gamble getting one of those clusters that are encased in that cement-like clay, but the roses that can be buried under the clay are pristine with no damage and can be very nice. Thanks again!!

That big cluster at the end is stunning.
