10 types of death stones in the blink of an eye

There are more than 4000 minerals and ores found on the earth. Among them are mineral rocks that possess shapes, beautiful colors but hidden inside dangerous components that can kill you in the blink of an eye.

1. Coloradoite

New Coloradoite has been discovered in crystalline ores, derived from magma circuits . This ore is a compound between mercury and tellurium , a very toxic and rare metal. Coloradoite is therefore twice as dangerous as those who dare to hold them. If heated or acted upon with a chemical, they will "release" a deadly gas, and release dust.

2. Blue chalcanthite crystals

Blue chalcanthite crystals are compounds of copper, sulfide and many other substances along with water . Because this combination has turned copper, necessary for the body but will become toxic if present in large quantities, into a biological crystal, meaning that copper can be dissolved in water and soluble. In large quantities into animals or plants, animals become weak and then kill them by interfering with the body's metabolism.

3. Hutchinsonite.Tali

Hutchinsonite.Tali is the black copper version. This type of metal is thick, slippery, equivalent to the weight of an atom, but more dangerous than an atom . This rare metal is a compound of many strange substances. The effects of thallium are quite strange, including hair loss, fatal skin contact, and in many cases it can be lethal. Hutchinsonite is a compound of thallium, copper and arsenic . Three types of toxins combine to form hutchinsonite, which increases the danger level of this compound.

Galena

Galena is the main ore of lead and forms beautiful glittering silver cubes. The lead is quite flexible, but Galena compound sulfide is extremely fragile and reacts quickly to chemicals. When the refractive index, the lead content in the ore can be harmful to humans and the environment.

Asbestos

Asbestos is one of the most dangerous ores on Earth. While other types of ore are toxic only through chemical components, asbestos causes direct damage to our lungs. It is a compound of silicon, iron, sodium and oxygen . They are made up of thousands of small crystals, which can fly in the air and "squeeze" into our lungs, causing lung cancer.

Arsenopyrite

Arsenopyrite is easily mistaken for gold. It would be foolish if you took this piece of ore to your mouth. Arsenopyrite is an iron-arsenic sulfate . If you heat or neglect to let water fall on this piece of ore, toxic smoke of arsenic will be released.

Torbernite

Torbernite is thought to be the ore of hell. This ore is a combination of phosphorus, copper, water and uranium . Because of its rare beauty, Torbernite is a type of stone that is sought after by collectors, but must be carefully preserved. If uranium decays, radon gas can cause you to develop lung cancer.

Stibnite

Stibnite is an antimony sulfide compound , but it looks quite like silver. When it was first discovered, people crushed it and used it as eyeliner, eye makeup for thousands of years until it became known to be poison. In addition, Stibnite is also used as a raw material to produce cutlery, cups or cups, resulting in Antimony contamination. Using stibnite can cause food to be poisoned at the most dangerous level.

Stibnite crystals can poison the body like arsenic, and have claimed many lives before people stopped making Stibnite-made utensils. After touching the stone, you should wash your hands to avoid poisoning.

Orpiment

Orpiment is a stone made from arsenic and sulfide , more toxic than arsenic. The color of this stone is quite charming, but if you hold it by hand, it can release neurotoxic, carcinogenic arsenic powder (carcinogen).

This beautiful orange-colored mineral is often seen in hot springs or craters. Touching only, orpiment can release neurotoxin causing neurological disorders. In many places, people also poisoned neurotoxin on the arrow by rubbing the arrowhead with Orpiment powder.

However, in China people used to use it as medicine, or alchemists used Orpiment in trying to create gold.

Cinnabar (mercury sulfate)

Cinnabar (mercury sulfate) is one of the most toxic ores in the world. Its name means dragon blood , which is composed primarily of water . Cinnabar is made up of volcanoes and sulfide minerals. Cinnabar can release mercury if touched or burned, resulting in shivers, loss of sensation and death.
