Columnar Witherite Crystal Cluster
Columnar Witherite Crystal Cluster from Nentsberry Haggs Mine, Alston Moor District, Cumbria, England
Collection Robert Lavinsky
Description A very showy, hefty example of Witherite from this famous district. The specimen is composed of unusually lustrous, sparkling, columnar crystals to 3 cm in height. Some of the tips, in particular on the top cluster, are contacted and so not complete, or this would be priced much more highly. Still, many tips are complete, and the overall appearance is actually quite nice, as well as being a significant locality specimen.
Locality Nentsberry Haggs Mine, Alston Moor District, Cumbria, England
Dimensions 7.6 x 7.5 x 5.1 cm.
Specimen Grade C
