| Description | | Barite with Fluorite | |
|
| | | A classic piece from a classic location. The zoned fluorite is included with pyrite and further pyrite is scattered across the barite crystals. The largest baryte measures 51mm in length and all are very well formed with well developed terminations. An amazing rarity!
Although the fluorite is not in good condition the association is the most important aspect of this piece. Fluorite-on-barite specimens from the Hilton Mine are rare now and no new material is likely to emerge | |
