Les Malines is a major deposit Pb-Zn-Ag deposit located in the Cévennes massif near Le Vigan.
Several mines were very active since the Middle Age and the modern mining works, operated by the Peñarroya-Metaleurop company, shut down in 1991 after producing almost 1 million tons of metal.
Les Malines became famous in the mineral collection world in the 1980's when the modern mine sections of Les Cèdres and La Sanguinède hit a succession of fantastic pockets with outstanding baryte balls or bournonite crystals, the two 'star' species of the deposit!
Here is beautiful and very representative specimen from Les Malines displaying a 4.0 cm diameter baryte ball resting on a bed of sparkling 'ruby' red sphalerite and micro brassy pyrite.
It is not common to come by such a balanced and aesthetic baryte specimen from Les Malines, especially in good condition.
An aesthetic French classic!
