Item Description

A striking dense forest of beautiful, pearlescent luster, pastel-pink, curved saddle-shaped Dolomite rhombs covers the sculptural large, mounded plate with underlying, sparkly, druzy Quartz. Pretty sea-green glass-clear Fluorite crystal sections on the edges really add color and contrast to this outstanding and RARE combination from this much less well-known Fe-Mg-Au mine in Hunan Province. These fluorites are from a pocket collected at the end of 2015-into 2016. Purple LW UV fluorite fluorescence. Valued at $1000. One of only a few we had for auction. In all, I do not think 50 good pieces came from this pocket.
