Description

Rich and elegant drusy of emerald green fluorite cubes, often twinned or interlocked, with great lustre and mostly gemmy. Locally, some grey, crude galena crystals can be spotted too.

To my knowledge, and besides the removal of major Fe oxides and mud, the specimen has not been treated in any way and it comes from the older UK Mining Ventures operations, thus when the mine was still called Rogerley.

A lovely specimen, quite rich and in pretty good conditions.
