IJP24 Pyromorphite

Caldbeck Fells, Cumbria, England, United Kingdom

9.4x 4.4x 3.7 cm

$265

A cabinet specimen richly covered in bright green pyromorphite from the classic Caldbeck Fells area.  Judging from the partial label glued to the reverse, I would guess it is quite old, too.  Under recent legislation, collecting is no longer allowed at this commons.  The price has been significantly lowered, as the crystals appear to have formed in a fissure, meaning that many lack terminations.
