Calcite on fluorite, with fine grained pyrite from the Ladywash Mine, Eyam, Derbyshire. Old label says that it was collected in February, 1979, which would be around the time that the mine closed. Interesting to see two different habits of calcite crystals - scalenohedron and "butterfly" twin. FOV = 8 cm.
