Bismuth Rainbow Crystal Staircase - SOLD 2.044" triceratops frill Early research on the SNCBismuth is an element (Bi 83) best known for its unusual staircase shape, the result of bismuth atoms attaching to the edge of a rapidly growing crystal. This is called hoppering, when atoms are drawn to the edge of a structure, creating a lattice formation. This specimen is a Bismuth Rainbow Crystal, measuring 2. 044". While bismuth's practical uses are limited beyond some pharmaceuticals, the element's utterly unique colors and shape continue to
