Ping 'an red cinnabar, the authentic ancient city of Fenghuang. Phoenix belonged to Chenxi County in Han Dynasty, Three Kingdoms and Sui Dynasty. At that time, only Phoenix produced cinnabar in Chenxi County. Cinnabar, a Chinese medicine named cinnabar, a sulfide mineral, mainly contains mercury sulfide (HgS). After digging, select pure ones, use magnets to absorb iron-containing impurities, and then wash away miscellaneous stones and sediment with water.
This product is granular or massive aggregate, which is granular or massive. Bright red or dark red, striped red to maroon, shiny. Heavy, brittle, flaky and fragile, powdery and shiny. A slight breath, a faint taste. Cinnabar powder, take cinnabar, absorb iron filings with a magnet, or fly by water method. Mineral medicine is ground under wet conditions, and then ultrafine powder is obtained by different suspensions of coarse powder and fine powder in water.
Important raw materials
Flying in water, drying or drying below 40℃. It is vermilion fine powder, light in weight, with no granular substance when pinched by fingers, with magnets and no iron powder, with slight breath and light taste. Cinnabar, also known as ghost fairy cinnabar, cinnabar, red lead and mercury sand, is a kind of mercury sulfide (HgS) mineral. It contains 86.2% mercury and is the most important mineral raw material for mercury smelting. Its crystal can be used as an important material for laser technology, and it was used as an important raw material for alchemy in ancient China.
The crystal belongs to the tripartite system and is homogeneous with the black Cinnabar of the equiaxed system. Often in the shape of a diamond or a short column, often running through the twin crystals. Perfect cleavage with parallel cylinders, the aggregate is granular, massive or film-like. Mohs hardness is 2.5 and specific gravity is 8. 10. The color is often red, and the crystal surface has red stripes and is translucent. Pure cinnabar is diamond luster and vermilion. When containing impurities, the luster is dull and reddish brown. It is a typical low-temperature hydrothermal mineral, and its genesis is related to modern volcanism.
