Erythrite is a secondary hydrated cobalt arsenate mineral that typically forms as delicate, rosy-pink crystals or crusts. It is commonly found in association with other cobalt-bearing minerals in oxidized cobalt deposits. Also known as ‘Cobalt Blooms’, Erythrite is most commonly found growing as brightly colored crusts on Cobalt minerals. Because Erythrite is easy to spot by miners, Erythrite is used as an indicator by prospectors who are looking for Cobalt - Silver - Nickel deposits. Erythrite crystals display a range of reds, from light pink to vivid magenta to dark crimson. They also have multiple forms; Erythrite crystals can be radial or stellate aggregates, drusy or fibrous. Common Erythrite is powdery and massive, while striated, prismatic crystals are quite rare.
