About WitheriteHide

03462420014946703067448.jpg
William Withering
Formula:
BaCO3
Colour:
Colourless, white, greyish, light yellow; colourless in transmitted light.
Lustre:
Vitreous, Resinous
Hardness:
3 - 3½
Specific Gravity:
4.289 - 4.293
Crystal System:
Orthorhombic
Member of:
Name:
Named after William Withering (1741-1799), English physician and naturalist, who first described the mineral.
The Ba analogue of strontianite and aragonite.

Found in low-temperature hydrothermal vein deposits.

Compare 'UM1974-03-CO:BaCaMg'.

Note on the type locality:
It was for a long time assumed to be Alston Moor, Eden, Cumbria, but Cotterell (2022) demonstrated that there is "evidence to show that Alston Moor was 'fabricated' as the Type Locality and that the real source was Anglezarke in Lancashire" (https://www.mindat.org/mesg-625213.html).

Other InformationHide

Thermal Behaviour:
Inverts under CO2 pressure to a hexagonal (?), and then an isometric modification upon heating.
Notes:
Soluble in dilute HCl.
Health Risks:
Barium Carbonate is toxic if ingested, and it has been used as a rat poison. Handling of Witherite is not a major cause of concern as long as you avoid breathing in dust (such as may be generated by grinding, sawing or trimming specimens) and you wash your hands after handling.

MSDS Data sheet on Barium Carbonate - NOTE this refers to the powder which is more dangerous to handle than crystalline Witherite.
Oral ld50 between 100 and 300mg/kg.
