Blue John is a rare and beautiful variety of fluorite found only in the Blue John Cavern and Treak Cliff Cavern in Castleton, Derbyshire, England. It is renowned for its distinctive bands of purple, blue, and yellow, which create striking patterns when polished.
The stone has been prized since the 18th century for making ornaments, jewellery, and decorative vases. Its name likely comes from the French "bleu et jaune," meaning "blue and yellow." Because deposits are limited, mining is carefully controlled to preserve the resource. Blue John remains a symbol of Derbyshire's natural heritage and geological uniqueness.
