Recently Viewed

Cerussite is a lead carbonate mineral (PbCO3) primarily known as an important ore of lead. It's a secondary mineral formed when carbonate waters interact with galena (lead sulfide). In metaphysical terms, it's believed to be an "attraction stone," helping to manifest beneficial outcomes and energies.

Geology:
  • Formation: Cerussite is a secondary mineral, meaning it forms from the alteration of primary lead-containing minerals, particularly galena. This alteration occurs when lead-bearing minerals are exposed to carbonate-rich waters.
  • Occurrences: Cerussite is found in various locations, including mines and quarries in Germany, Czech Republic, Slovenia, and the United States. It can also be found in associations with other minerals like barite and galena. 
  • Physical Properties: Cerussite is typically colorless or white, but can also be gray, blue, or green. It has a Mohs hardness of 3 to 3.75 and a specific gravity of 6.5. It is brittle and has a conchoidal fracture.
  • Chemical Composition: Cerussite is a lead carbonate mineral, with the formula PbCO3. 
Metaphysical Properties:
  • Attraction and Manifestation: Cerussite is considered an "attraction stone" in metaphysical circles, believed to help individuals manifest positive energies and outcomes. 
  • Strength and Protection: Some believe Cerussite can provide a sense of strength, protection, and positivity. 
  • Meditation: Cerussite is often used in meditation to connect with the spiritual body and understand its unique energies. 
  • Symbolism: In some beliefs, cerussite represents the importance of compromise and adapting to situations where inner resistance holds one back.
