Barite is a type of mineral that is primarily composed of barium sulphate, along with minor amounts of other elements such as strontium and lead. It has a white to pale gray or blue colour, and often forms as tabular or prismatic crystals.

It is a relatively common mineral that is found in certain types of sedimentary rocks, and is commonly found in rocks such as limestone and sandstone.

Barite is commonly used as a drilling fluid in the oil and gas industry, as well as in various industrial applications such as paper, rubber, and plastics.
