Fluorite and Malachite from New West Caradon Mine, Cornwall

Fluorite and Malachite from New West Caradon Mine, West Caradon Mine, Crow's Nest, St Cleer, Cornwall, England, UK

Small specimen of mixed matrix including fluorite and malachite, from New West Caradon Mine, Cornwall.

This may contain both fluorite and malachite, but it is not a particularly good specimen of either. Both are difficult to spot, and magnification is essential for the malachite, which is also surrounded by some other ore minerals - probably cuprite or native copper.

Comes in a cardboard tray with an ID label.
