Campylite

Mexico Mine, Roughton Gill, Caldbeck, Allerdale, Cumbria, England, UK
Locality type:Mine
Classification
Species:Mimetite var: Campylite
Formula:Pb5(AsO4)3Cl
Comments:Rounded aggregates of the 'campylite' habit are more common here than in specimens known to be from the main Roughton Gill mine, but they do not mimic Dry Gill 'campylite' in form or association sufficiently to be confused with it.
