This is a natural specimen from Morocco showing strong cluster of crystal development.
Size 79x56x39 mm app
Aragonite occurs in two distinct places Spain and Morocco. This crystal cluster is from a pocket in a Moroccan lava bed, where it formed at high pressure and relatively low temperature. At surface conditions, aragonite is actually metastable, and heating it to 400°C will make it revert to calcite. The other point of interest about these crystals is that they are multiple twins that make these pseudo-hexagons. Single aragonite crystals are shaped more like tablets or prisms.
Aragonite is calcium carbonate with the same chemical formula as calcite, but its carbonate ions are packed differently. That is, aragonite and calcite are polymorphs of calcium carbonate. It is harder than calcite (3.5 to 4, rather than 3, on the Mohs scale) and somewhat denser, but like calcite it responds to weak acid by vigorous bubbling. You may pronounce it a-RAG-onite or AR-agonite, though the majority of American geologists use the first pronunciation. It is named for Aragon, in Spain, where notable crystals occur.

Pourquoi les utilisateurs se surenchérissent-ils ?
Lorsqu'une enchère est placée, il s'agit du montant maximum qu'un utilisateur est prêt à enchérir pour le produit. Notre système enchérira ensuite automatiquement au nom de cet utilisateur, augmentant progressivement l'enchère pour maintenir sa position d'enchérisseur le plus élevé, jusqu'au maximum spécifié.
Lorsqu'il y a une icône indiquant "Enchère automatique", cela signifie que notre système place activement des enchères pour l'utilisateur en fonction de son enchère maximale. Cela peut donner l'impression que les utilisateurs surenchérissent eux-mêmes, mais c'est simplement le résultat de la mise à jour de l'enchère par le système pour refléter la limite maximale des utilisateurs.
