Barite

Barite, or barium sulfate, is predominantly used as a weighting agent in drilling fluids for oil and gas exploration. Its high density helps control the pressure in wells. Additionally, barite is used in the manufacturing of paints, plastics, and paper as a pigment or filler due to its ability to absorb x-rays and gamma rays.
