Item Description
A showy, aesthetic and pristine large plate of translucent, violet and dark purple fluorite octohedrons to 2.4 cm from the famed Dean Mine of China. Common 5-7 years ago, supplies have dried up and disappeared, with very little new material coming out. The contacted fluorites on the back of the crust are the typical green. This excellent example has modest purple fluorescence.
