Properties of Nickelin
Nickelite is a mineral composed of 43.9% arsenic and 56.1% nickel, with traces of antimony, iron, cobalt and sulfur. Initially copper-red in color, Nickelite tarnishes to lead-gray, brown or black on contact with air.
Its crystal system is hexagonal.
Due to its composition, Nickeline should not be ingested. Prolonged skin contact should be avoided.
In lithotherapy, Nickelinum can be used to boost the immune system (the stone should be placed in a cloth pouch to avoid contact with the skin).
*Please note that lithotherapy is not a substitute for serious medical treatment.
