Beautifully named chemicals like Paris green, calomel, and realgar, proved to be hazardous to the pyrotechnician's health. |

Orpiment is a lesser mineral associated with realgar and lead sulfosalts in dolomite at Binnental, Valais, Switzerland. |

The next morning we drove west to the famous town of Shimen, the locality for all the superb realgar and orpiment crystals. |
|
It is an alteration product of realgar, native arsenic, and, less commonly, arsenopyrite. |
|
Even the arsenic mine at Shimen, Hunan Province, is still the source of minor amounts of good realgar, orpiment, and calcite. |
|
A number of relatively minor yet interesting California realgar localities are given by Murdoch and Webb. |
|
Orpiment and realgar are yellow and orange mineral species of arsenic sulphide, used in 16th-century Venetian painting particularly, but at various other times also. |
|
Other minerals associated with the orpiment crystals are white to colorless barite crystals, lemon-yellow crystalline masses of sulfur, and minor realgar. |
|
I have seen realgar inclusions in colemanite turn yellow in a few months. |
|
Chinese dragon boat contenders even used to fortify themselves for competition by drinking realgar wine. |

Metabolic profiling studies on the toxicological effects of realgar in rats by H NMR spectroscopy. |
|
This mineral is unique to the andesitic volcanic complex, occurring in association with tridymite, hematite, cassiterite, magnetite, orpiment and realgar. |
|
Realgar is most frequently encountered in epithermal hydrothermal settings such as shallow veins, hot springs, and fumaroles. |
