Quartz from Leadhills, Scotland

Quartz from Leadhills, South Lanarkshire, Scotland, UK

Small specimens of Quartz from around the Leadhills area of Scotland, available in two quality grades and a few different sizes.

In this case, the Quartz is graded less by clarity and more by 'interesting formations'. The A are typically acceptable druzy, the B are often weathered, iron-stained, or 'massive', formless pieces of Quartz. 

Leadhills is an old lead-zinc mining area based around the village of Leadhills. These specimens are from an older collection and unfortunately little provenance was recorded - just 'Leadhills'.

They will come loosely bagged, or wrapped in paper for protection.
