Item Description
Classic color-zoned, large, two-sided fluorite from the famous Okorusu Mine. Glassy, gemmy cubes on the front, to 2.9 cm, with satin lustre faces have lovely emerald-green bodies nicely accented with sharp teal-blue edge phantoms. Similar smaller cubes on the 'B' side of the layered fluorite matrix, to 1.6 cm, are a nice bonus. The noted periphery wear is certainly only a modest detraction to this rich and showy large example from this well-known locale. Purple fluorescence. See the 2018 article on the mine in the Mineralogical Record, Vol. 49, No. 3. Ex Chet Lemanski Collection and acquired in 1996.
