We’re thinking about a new fluorescent mineral display at @morethanadodo.bsky.social What would you put in it? #MineralMonday

You’re absolutely right. These were all part of a display of UK mineral heritage, including lots from the Pennines and Cumbria, as well as classic localities in the Midlands, Wales and the southwest.

A day late for #MineralMonday but we've been busy...👀 The answer to the question, what does a @morethanadodo.bsky.social mineral display look like on the inside 🤔

We’re changing some of our permanent displays at @morethanadodo.bsky.social which means a chance to get up close to some display specimens like this stunning azurite on malachite with chrysocolla #MineralMonday

Incredible site. If you want to see the length of these trackways, and a little walk through of some of the Sauropod tracks, I've uploaded a 4k60p video to YouTube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=6dyH...
