from New Mexico are found in deposits in various regions, particularly in the southern and southwestern parts of the state, such as the Hansonburg and Burro Mountains districts. These minerals often form together in fissure veins and replacement deposits, with fluorite appearing in various colors like blue and purple, and barite as white blades or crystals. While commercial production has been limited, notable locations include the Blanchard Mine in Socorro County and the Foster Mine in Grant County.
Geological and mineralogical information
Formation: The deposits were formed by mineral-rich fluids leached from source rocks by heat from magmatic activity. These fluids then flowed along open spaces and fractures in the earth's crust, depositing minerals as they cooled and their chemistry changed.
Common associations: Barite and fluorite are frequently found together in the same deposits.
