Unit price per1 low in stock
This is a sculpted plate of Limonite after Pyrite. Limonite after pyrite is a type of pseudomorph, meaning limonite has replaced the original pyrite crystal structure while keeping its shape. This occurs when pyrite oxidizes over time, often in the presence of water and oxygen, transforming into limonite, a mixture of hydrated iron oxides. The result is a rusty brown to yellowish mineral that retains pyrite’s cubic or pyritohedral shape but with a softer, earthy texture.
It believed that limonite after pyrite combines pyrite’s energy of strength and manifestation with limonite’s grounding and protective qualities. It is sometimes associated with stability, resilience, and transformation, symbolizing the ability to adapt and grow through life’s changes.
This is a great thumbnail sized Limonite after Pyrite pseudomorph specimen from Spain.
