Thank you all for helping out. Becuase I (probably) suffered the most from that IP address, I,Goodshoped35110s, give you all the RickK Anti-Vandalism Barnstar! (yay.) :) --Goodshoped35110s 04:23, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
Celestine is a mineral consisting of
strontium sulfate (
SrSO4). It is named for its occasional delicate blue color. Celestine and the
carbonate mineral
strontianite are the principal sources of the element
strontium, commonly used in fireworks and in various metal alloys. The mineral occurs as crystals, and also in compact massive, and fibrous forms. It is found worldwide, mostly in sedimentary rocks, usually in small quantities. Pale-blue crystal specimens, as shown in this photograph (field of view 3.5 by 2.6 centimetres or 1.4 by 1.0 inch), are found in Madagascar.
