Item Description
The Huanzala mine in Peru has produced some of the most attractive and impressive Fluorites from all of South America. The mine has produced both green and pink Fluorites, and even pieces with both colors in the same crystal. These highly modified Fluorite crystals (a cominbation of cube, octahedron and dodecahedron) have a lovely pale "water green" color with excellent transparency and are associated with lustrous pyritohedral Pyrite crystals. It is certainly one of the better Huanzala Fluorite specimens that I have had to offer in a while. Enjoy.
