Photo Copyright © Ian Jones  - This image is copyrighted. Unauthorized reproduction prohibited.
Locality: Hingston Down Quarry, Gunnislake Area, Callington District, Cornwall, England, UK
Group of 1cm bertrandite crystals with quartz and chlorite. Ian Jones collection, ex Richard Barstow collection, collected 1978.

Exceptional for the UK. I was collecting with Dick when we got this and lost the toss to decide which of us was going to have it! Dick Barstow died tragically young, there are a lot of memories in this rock.
