[QUOTE="DrDuck, post: 436128, member: 158"] Closest would have been the Prospect Quarry. It was a source of world quality prenhite and a range of other minerals and specimens. Unfortunately, it was closed down in 2007 and is now an industrial development. See this link for an account of the quarry, which was a regular destination for lapidary club outings. Another interesting reminder that we should have been prospecting and fossicking in the 1960's! [url]http://minsocnsw.org.au/newsletters/MinSoc_Newsletter_Jul11.pdf[/url] [/QUOTE]
