In the 1980's an unusual lead and vanadium deposit was discovered in N.E. Derbyshire. Occasionally galena in the vein took on this botryoidal habit which is thought to have be formed by rapid crystallisation from low temperature sulphide gels. Ex P. Briscoe collection. For further details of this mineral occurrence see the Journal of the Russell Society, Volume 24, 2021.
