ABOUT The Missour Cercle of Morocco is well known for producing attractive blue barite specimens with excellent crystal form and color. Barite forms in hydrothermal environments where barium-rich fluids crystallize within open spaces, often alongside calcite. Matrix-free specimens from this locality are especially popular because the crystals are fully exposed, making them ideal for display and appreciation of their natural form.
