Is the cinnabar tag made of original stone?

The cinnabar tag is not made of original stone. The cinnabar label is still well synthesized. Generally, the original stone is highly radioactive, and the cinnabar tag is mostly powder. Due to the profound influence of cinnabar on China traditional culture and the scarcity of resources, cinnabar products are gradually recognized by the society. However, due to consumers' low awareness of cinnabar itself, a large number of cinnabar products have appeared in the market.

The difference of cinnabar

Simply put, fake cinnabar is not made of cinnabar. At present, there are various methods to counterfeit cinnabar on the market, some are made of plastic products, and some are directly mixed with glue with red pigment. This is easy to identify, and it is not enough to achieve the purpose of confusing the real with the fake.

At present, barite is the closest material to real cinnabar on the market. Grinding barite into powder, then adding aluminum powder, and then adjusting the red pigment, and then making the finished product.
