Over time, subtle surface alterations created an ultra-thin film across the specimen, producing the vivid iridescent colors that shift and shimmer under changing light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"416\" data-end=\"792\"\u003eMaterial from the Pekan District is especially admired for its intense rainbow coloration and sculptural texture, qualities enhanced by the humid conditions and iron-rich geology of the region. Unlike metallic minerals that derive color from their chemistry alone, the rainbow effect seen here is caused by light interference across the mineral’s microscopic surface layers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"794\" data-end=\"945\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003eBold, reflective, and constantly changing in appearance, this specimen captures the interplay between mineral formation, oxidation, and light itself.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mineral Nexus","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43394274263130,"sku":null,"price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/2504\/6618\/files\/MN0377-IridescentGoethite-Malaysia-_200_4_-Edited_662e414c-5974-4676-9cf1-cf9454e4ae1e.jpg?v=1779231947","url":"https:\/\/themineralnexus.com\/products\/iridescent-goethite-1","provider":"Mineral Nexus","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
