     The celestine specimens from the Torà and Ivorra regions are a classic of Catalan mineralogy. They have been found in different areas of both municipalities. This specimen comes from test pits taken near Torà, on slopes that are now covered and prohibited for searching due to the destruction caused by some prospectors in the past. Pointed prismatic crystals, slightly bluish-gray in color, are found in cavities lined with calcite, in a carbonate marl matrix.

Rich group of celestite crystals, bright, with transparence and a characteristic bluish tone. They are disposed on a marl matrix upholstered with calcite crystals. This specimen belongs to the first outcrop of the Costa de l'Aguda, in Torà (Lleida).
A good size nodule of celestite from this classic Catalan locality. Well defined prismatic crystals, some brilliant, some of them partially replaced by calcite, also observing calcite perimorphosis, hollow prismatic crystals, some of them with corroded celestite remaining. This specimen is interesting for this substitution. The vug is covered with calcite crystals. This specimen belongs to the first outcrop of the Costa de l'Aguda, close to the town of Torà, Lleida.
