Some Of The Most Deadly Crystals On Earth
Stibnite: This steel gray colored mineral is found associated with gneiss, limestone and granite rocks. Large deposits of stibnite have been mined in the Shikoku Island of Japan, the Western United States, and the Hunan province of China. Minor deposits of this mineral also occur in some European countries, Canada, Mexico, Peru, Algeria, and Kalimantan. In the ancient world, the silver color of stibnite also popularized its use in kitchen utensils.
However, many people died as a result of food poisoning triggered by leaching of chemicals from this mineral, thus discontinuing its use in culinary utensils.
Antimony in stibnite acts as a poison, producing symptoms similar to arsenic poisoning. Stibnite paste has been used for thousands of years for cosmetics to darken eyebrows and lashes. The mineral was also used to make eating utensils, causing poisoning from antimony ingestion.

Orpiment: A arsenic sulfide mineral with a stunning orange-yellow color. The mineral is found naturally in hydrothermal vents, hot springs, and fumaroles. Strangely, this mineral was once used in china for medical purposes. The arsenic, especially if it is allowed to oxidize, will lead to arsenic poisoning if handled incorrectly.

Chalcanthite: Commonly found in arid regions. When the crystals break down in water, they kill all animal and plant life by shutting down all vital functions.

Torbernite: Found in granite. It’s admired by collectors for its green crystals. However, since it’s radioactive, the mineral can release deadly radon gas if heated.

Cinnabar: The scarlet colored mineral is found near volcanoes and makes it a deadly mineral and those who come into contact with it may experience tremors, loss of sense, and death.

Galena: Ancient Egyptians used this rock as a way to reduce the sun’s glare. Although it’s safe to handle, the rock is brittle and there is a high risk of lead poisoning if you’re exposed for prolonged periods to the crystal’s dust.

Arsenopyrite: A arsenic iron sulfide, which is the same type of mineral as pyrite. If one attempts to heat or in any way alter the mineral, a strong garlic odor of arsenic will be produced as lethally toxic, corrosive and carcinogenic vapors are released.
Just handling the mineral brings one into contact with unstable sulfuric arsenic salts. Interestingly, arsenopyrite may be identified by striking a specimen with a hammer. The powerful garlic odor of arsenic can be briefly detected as the sparks fly.
