Mineral Information:
Brown aragonite is a variety of aragonite, which is a carbonate mineral that is typically composed of calcium carbonate. Brown aragonite, as the name suggests, has a brown coloration, which can range from light tan to dark chocolate brown.
Brown aragonite is typically formed in sedimentary environments, such as caves or hot springs, where it can crystallize out of water and form distinctive, often intricate formations. It is also found in marine environments, where it can form as a result of the precipitation of calcium carbonate from seawater.
Mineral Care:
Like other varieties of aragonite, brown aragonite has a relatively low hardness rating of 3.5 to 4 on the Mohs scale. This means that it can be easily scratched or damaged by harder materials.
In addition, aragonite is a brittle mineral and can be prone to breakage or fracturing, especially if it has been subjected to stress or impact.
As such, it is recommended that brown aragonite be handled with care to avoid accidental damage. It is also advisable to store it in a safe location and avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or harsh chemicals, as these can also cause damage to the mineral.
Metaphysical Properties:
Brown Aragonite is used as a grounding stone that helps calm the mind, and is good for stress and anxiety. Brown Aragonite helps to release fear and negative energy. It is a stone believed to help with creativity and personal growth.
