Florence-Ullcoats Mine

Egremont, Copeland, Cumbria, England

Florence-Ullcoats Mine was an iron ore mine in Cumbria which was well known in mineral collectors circles for producing excellent specimens of iron ores, including hematite, kidney ore and specularite – often occurring alongside baryte, fluorite, and calcites.

It was first sunk in 1914, and closed and reopened several times before its most recent closure in 2007.
