     The Greenlaws mine is located in Weardale, in the northern Pennines of  England, south of the small town of Daddry Shield. Around we find famous  mines such as Rogerly, Boltsburn or Heights... This Greenlaws mine was  worked for the galena between 1840 and 1901, being one of the most  important lead mines in the area. In 2009 a group of collectors started  the "Greenlaws mining project". After almost 5 years digging out the  vertical shaft over 80 meters (270 ft) appeared the first specimens of  fluorite, ending 2013.
This specimens we propose has been extracted  from vugs found in a new connecting tunnel at 270 ft, between main shaft  to a second contiguous adit. Good brilliance, transparence, with  geometric color zoning that varies between purple to blue according to  the incident light. With defined faces and edges and these  characteristic whitish internal structures. Extremely fluorescent.
