Vanadinite forms in the oxidation zone of lead deposits when vanadium-rich fluids react with existing minerals. It is used in industry to harden steel. Formed of often brilliant and well-defined hexagonal crystals, vanadinite is primarily found associated with \u003cstrong\u003ebaryte, calcite, cerussite, mimetite\u003c\/strong\u003e, and other \u003cstrong\u003eiron oxides\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCharacteristics of vanadinite:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength: 9.9cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWidth: 4.1cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeight: 5.7cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 230g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardness of vanadinite: \u003cstrong\u003e2.5 to 3\u003c\/strong\u003e on the Mohs scale\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDensity of vanadinite: Between \u003cstrong\u003e6.8 and 7g\/cm³\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVanadinite belongs to the \u003cstrong\u003ehexagonal\u003c\/strong\u003e crystal system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAppearance of vanadinite:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom Mibladen, a rural commune in Morocco, here is a beautiful vanadinite formed of numerous hexagonal crystals, ranging from red to brown and measuring approximately 1mm to 7mm.
