History and Geological Formation ~
Vanadinite was first described in 1831 by the German mineralogist, Friedrich Wöhler, who named it after the element vanadium, which was discovered by Andrés Manuel del Río in 1801. The mineral forms through the weathering of primary lead ore deposits, and it is often found in arid, desert-like regions where oxidation is common.
Vanadinite can be found in several locations around the world, with notable deposits in places like Morocco, the United States (particularly Arizona and New Mexico), and Namibia. The striking red to orange colors of Vanadinite make it a highly sought-after specimen for collectors, and its natural crystal formations, which often appear as hexagonal prisms, are highly prized.
