Item Description

Glassy, very pretty, teal-green, fluorite cuboctahedrons are festooned on the large sericitized granodiorite matrix plate and are nicely accented by a scattering of glassy, colorless, calcite rhombs, to 6 mm, on this showy and excellent combination from this ancient underground and open pit deposit. Both the fluorite and calcite fluoresce. Rich large combination material, self-collected by Paco Gutierrez. It displays well without aid.
