Item Description
An excellent and showy combination specimen from recent finds at the famous Xianghualing Mine of China. The mounded matrix is covered with lustrous, translucent, pastel sea-green, fluorite cuboctahedrons with stepped growth faces. The fluorites are, in turn, richly and aesthetically sprinkled with very glassy, colorless, pseudohexagonal, pokerchip, calcite crystals to 1.9 cm. This fine combo piece is essentially pristine. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON.
