This unique goethite has a kidney-shaped surface structure. Goethite is an iron hydroxide mineral and is only formed near water. Goethite is named after the German poet and philosopher Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. Goethite is usually blackish-brown in color or, in large variations, reddish or yellowish-brown. It has crystallized at low temperatures in cracks and cavities in the bedrock. Goethite has a rhombic crystal structure. It has many forms, i.e. it occurs as prismatic crystals, thin plates, needle-like or fibrous prisms in cavities, fiber bundles or bubble-like clusters. Goethites from Finnish Lapland have been used as gemstones and collection specimens, like hematite.
