Barite, or Baryte, is a barium sulfate that comes in a wide variety of forms & colours. Its name is derived from the Greek word 'baros' meaning 'heavy', named as such in 1800 due to its unusually high specific gravity of 4.5. The Barite group consists of barite, celestite, anglesite & anhydrite, & all these minerals share the same similar chemical structure. This mineral can sometimes be fluorescent & can occur in beautiful rosette aggregates that strikingly resemble a flower (Barite Desert Rose.) Barite serves as the principal ore of barium, & has found many uses in industrial, medical & manufacturing industries. It is most abundantly found in the countries of Romania, Italy, England, Morocco, & the USA.
