Fluorite (botryoidal) on Quartz

Item Description

A PERFECT, totally pristine, translucent, 1-inch ball of botryoidal "fried-egg"-looking fluorite is here perched on a calcite crystal, on a pedestal of sparkling, white quartz points. The quality of this miniature is through the roof for this particular find and style, with such an isolated fluorite ball of such clarity, and prominence stuck out from the matrix. usually they are half-buried. to have one stick out so nicely, and on such a balanced matrix, makes this the single best miniature sized example I have had, for my tastes. botryoidal fluorite is rare in nature, comign from only a few locales despite the worldwide abundance of the species. valued $750
