Item Description
A fine quality specimen from the Tule Mine in Múzquiz featuring a 4.7 cm long, sharp, lustrous, pale blue (with yellow iron staining) tabular crystal of Celestine associated with very gemmy, pale lilac (nearly colorless) cubic crystals of Fluorite. The piece is not damage free, as there are some contacted areas, but it's still showy and eye-catching for what it is. From the collection of Gary Weaver of Prescott, Arizona (1944-2019). Gary was an electrical engineer who worked for many years for Hughes Aircraft in California. You can read Gary's obituary here https://www.dcourier.com/news/2019/apr/27/obituary-gary-richard-weaver/
