Fluorite (fluor)

Item Description

Very distinctive cluster of gemmy Fluorites from the famous Okorusu Mine in Namibia. Fluorites from Okorusu are renowned for their green and purple zoning, and in this case they are very unusual purple 'eyes' rather than the full phantoms. Also, they are very gemmy, which is much less common from here, so highly desirable. The largest crystal is 1.7 cm on edge, and they all have superb mirror-like luster - as good as possible. The kicker, though, is that these Fluorites have a bright blue-white fluorescence that would make an English Fluorite proud. This is unusual for Okorusu, and so it adds even more to the aesthetics. A wonderful specimen.
