Nenthead, Alston Moor District, North Pennines, North and Western Region (Cumberland), Cumbria, England

Ex. Carnegie Museum, Type Location

BaCaCo₃

This Witherite is from a classic location for the species. *There are actually several mines near the village of Nenthhead one of which, the Brownley is actually the type location so calling this type material may be a bit of a stretch. Two nice things about this specimen are the high luster and how transparent some of the crystals are at the termination. The specimen is in quite good condition.
