Description

Very nice set of white to beige baryte partially covered with fine crystals of very green pyromorphite. On one side of the piece, yellow cubic crystals of fluorite are visible. Various oxides also form beautiful ribbons.

Typical of the area, and very nice quality.

A specimen from the old baryte mine of Chaillac in the Indre department, closed in 2007. Today inaccessible.

Here is a video of this very good specimen of pyromorphite and fluorite from Chaillac:
