Description
English: Alstonite, Witherite
Locality: Brownley Hill Mine (Bloomsberry Horse Level), Nenthead, Alston Moor District, North Pennines, North and Western Region (Cumberland), Cumbria, England, UK (Locality at mindat.org)
Size: small cabinet, 9.7 x 4.1 x 3.7 cm
Alstonite with Witherite
This rich specimen dates back to , I would expect, the heyday here in the mid-1800s. It is covered by very sharp, alstonites to 6mm. Atop is a 2-cm cluster of witherite, as well. I think the orange dot atop is the remnant of a very old glue label. In any case, its surprisingly an attractive specimen, although there is some value to the even more attractively prepared, and exhaustively descriptive, old labels!
