Fluorite (ex Willard Wulff Collection)

Item Description

A good representative Fluorite specimen from the famous locality at Clay Center, Ohio. The piece hosts sharp, translucent, golden / root beer color cubic crystals of Fluorite with prismatic white crystals of Celestine on matrix. Decent shape for the most part, but it's not damage free. It's worth picking up as a reference specimen if you collect this material. The largest Fluorite measures 6 mm on edge. This piece comes to us from the collection of Willard W. Wulff (1904-1998) of Colorado Springs, Colorado, a prominent figure and collector of Colorado minerals. Wulff was one of the founding members of the Colorado Springs Mineralogical Society in 1936.
