barite
Barite is a mineral composed of barium sulfate (BaSO4). It is typically colorless or milky white, but can be any color due to impurities. It is one of the most common minerals and is often found in lead-zinc veins in limestones, in hot spring deposits, and with hematite ore. It is used primarily for its high specific gravity and as a major source of barium.
