Very interesting sucession of growth of three lead phosphates - grey phosphohedyphane spherulitic agregates (in the center) -> more light-grey crystalline crusts of Ca-bearing pyromorphite -> green crystalline crust of usual pyromorphite. FOV is 8x7 mm. Collected by Victor I. Stepanov in 1952 on Jupiter quarry of the deposit. Pavel M. Kartashov ...

Phosphohedyphane : Pb3Ca2[Cl|(PO4)3]

Whitwell quarry, Whitwell, Derbyshire, England, UK

The specimen from Whitwell Quarry, Derbyshire shows a botryoidal coating of yellow/green phosphohedyphane richly coating cerussite which has formed some interesting twins. The matrix consists of massive galena and barite.
Specimen size 60x50mm
