Color-zoned Fluorite on Rubyjack Sphalerite

Item Description

A classic and outstanding combination specimen from the famous Elmwood Mine. A 3.2 x 2.9 x 2.6 cm, lustrous, translucent, fluorite cube is aesthetically set on splendent, partially gemmy, rubyjack sphalerite crystals. The rich grape-purple fluorite has intense, stepped-growth faces, giving a flashy, scintiallating look and classic, darker purple, edge phantoms. This beautiful fluorite is complete and very nearly pristine, with only very trivial cornerwear on two corners. A very fine, older combination specimen from this noted locale, with top-flight gemmy sphalerites. It has several very fine display views, as you can see. Valued $400-600. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!
