Crocoite from
Poddy Gill, Mungrisdale, Eden, Cumbria, England, UK


Locality type:River
Classification
Species:Crocoite
Formula:PbCr6+O4
Comments:Kingsbury reference. Cooper & Stanley (1990): "A specimen in the Kingsbury Collection, BM(NH), with a crudely crystalline orange encrustation with green pyromorphite on a massive galena and quartz matrix was investigated during the present study. It has an associated label: 'pyromorphite with ?mimetite and ?wulfenite on galena and quartz. Shaft on east/west vein near foot of Poddy Gill, Carrock Fell... 1951' in Kingsbury's handwriting. The orange mineral was shown by XRD to be crocoite. The result is an enigma: Kingsbury was too experienced a mineralogist to have missed the obvious possibility of crocoite: in spite of the locality having been heavily collected over the years for wulfenite and pyromorphite, the authors are not aware of other crocoite specimens from here, and the occurrence requires confirmation."
