DESCLOIZITE FOR SALE

Descloizite is a rare lead-zinc vanadate mineral admired for its earthy, rich colors, which can range from deep reddish-brown and orange-brown to dark gray and black. It typically forms as elongated, prismatic crystals or fan-shaped clusters, with a resinous to sub-metallic luster that gives it a distinct, eye-catching shine. In some cases, descloizite can also appear in granular or botryoidal masses, adding texture and character to its appearance.

This mineral is commonly found in the oxidized zones of lead- and zinc-rich ore deposits, where it forms over time as vanadium-rich solutions precipitate the mineral. Descloizite often occurs alongside other vanadates and oxidized minerals, such as vanadinite, wulfenite, and mottramite, creating beautiful natural associations.
