Galena from Northcliffe Sough Mine, Derbyshire

Galena from Northcliffe Sough Mine, Calver, Derbyshire, England, UK

Nice little specimen of galena from Northcliffe Sough Mine.

Labelled by a previous owner as being from 'Northcliffe South Mine'.

The previous owner also labels this as containing massicot and litharge, but I don't entirely agree and wasn't able to confirm these species were present. As a result I've just labelled it as galena.

Comes boxed with the former owners handwritten label and our ID label.

Toxic mineral: contains lead.
