This is a 3-dimensional, translucent, lustrous crystal of witherite from the Cumbrian ore fields. It is also rather large at a whopping 6 cm in length! There are a few gray galena crystals attached on the side. The galena crystals reach 1.0 cm across and provide a nice accent for the combination. I have to say, I have not personllay seen an English witherite in association with galena from here before. It makes sense, just haven't seen it. This is a very aesthetic, nice-sized specimen of some significance for the species, for which this was a very important locality in the 1800s. Better in person!
