Description: | White twinned cubic crystals of fluorite with pyrite. Most of the fluorite crystals found in Weardale are twinned, which means that one cubic crystal appears to be growing out of another. White fluorite from Weardale is unusual, most of the fluorite found in the area is purple. This specimen is from Cambokeels Mine. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | rocks and minerals natural world | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
