Siderite from Devon Great Consols, Devon

Siderite from Devon Great Consols, Gulworthy, West Devon, Devon, UK

Nice little specimen of Siderite from Devon Great Consols.

Unfortunately no information was recorded on which mine this was from - perhaps collected from a dump on the site.

The original collector has labelled this Melanterite and Siderite; I was not able to identify melanterite for certain during the quick look I had, so I have labelled it simply as siderite.

Small specimen, best considered a thumbnail. Comes in a new plastic box, but with its original label (1999) and our ID label.
