Celestite is identified by its light blue coloration and crystalline structure, often appearing in translucent formations.
A strontium sulfate mineral, celestite forms in sedimentary environments, particularly evaporite deposits.
Applications include strontium extraction for fireworks, flares, and industrial uses requiring color-producing compounds.
Sourced from regions including Madagascar, Mexico, and the United States, each specimen varies in clarity and crystal formation.
