Botryoidal Fluorite

Item Description

This recent find really shocked the mineral collecting world, because botryoidal fluorites are rare worldwide, and here you had intensely rich PURPLE (lavender) ones (which had rarely been seen before). This sculptural, two-sided rib hosts bubbly, botryoidal translucent fluorite, that glows a luscious lavender under good light. In good shape, overall. One end is missing and the other end is contacted, which is certainly only a modest detraction. Very highly representative of the rare species and find.
