Well, I don't recall who but someone asked me to post some Swedish specimen.
I got some new daylight bulbs for pics, so here's a teaser!

Flourite, Calcite & Pyrite from Brånahult, Nybro,Småland, Sweden.
I was one of the original discoverers of the crystals at the quarry around 2009.

Excellent specimen & photo! I believe it was me that asked about Swedish specimens!

Very nice EU I'm surprised the fluorite did not attack the pyrites. Cool deal to be among the first for something of that nature.

Oculus, Yes it was! I'll grab more pics this weekend. Have more neat calcite & flourite.

DD, We found a decent bit of similar specimens. Lot's of calcite, quartz, Flourite, galena & pyrite in the quarry. Well, there used to be.
As they expanded the size of the quarry most pockets are now gone. A occasional quartz crystal can be found.


Here's one quartz crystal I faceted from the same locality. 1 of 2 known cut pieces from there!




I still have more specimens then I need, if someone would like a piece... Give me a holler.
