Great discovery in Derbyshire

Content image: Great discovery in Derbyshire

Story covered by BBC local news for Derbyshire.

I am not sure if this is the same "discovery" made a few years back or something new.

Certainly it looks a good deposit of usable Blue John, brilliant news for the Blue John fraternity and crafts people.

Maybe I will take a chainsaw to the next Bakewell show!

Quite a coincidence with this news report today was a listing by Peter Crozier - Clearout minerals. Peter decided to post a series of old Postcards of the Caverns.

I have added these as another gallery to this page.
