Heights Quarry, Eastgate, Weardale, Co. Durham, England
2770
Choice Heights quarry specimen from Roland Thomas's collection. Blue-grey fluorite cubes up to 37x23mm cover the two display faces of the specimen with a rib of fluorite at the apex linking the two sides. A small gemmy twinned crystal is probably later in the paragenesis than the other fluorite crystals. Over the fluorite there is a dusting of micro quartz and a small number of small, somewhat altered galena crystals.
