ROGERLEY MINE SPECIMENS

(Frosterley, County Durham, England)

Mineral specimens from the Rogerley Mine in Frosterley, County Durham, England, are highly prized for their exceptional Fluorite crystals. These specimens are renowned for their striking apple-green color and sharp, well-formed cubic crystals, often perfectly transparent and sharply defined. A distinctive feature of Rogerley Fluorite is its strong daylight fluorescence, which reveals a vivid blue glow under shortwave UV light, making it particularly attractive to collectors. Crystals are typically found in clusters or as single, dramatic cubes on a matrix, and can range from small cabinet specimens to larger, museum-quality pieces. The combination of color, clarity, crystal form, and unique fluorescence makes Rogerley Mine Fluorite one of the most sought-after fluorescent minerals in the world.
