Item Description
Light mint-green, translucent, satiny, fluorite cubes have grown on both sides of a thin slice of matrix on this extremely rich two-sided locality specimen. I have not seen a more richly covered example of fluorite from the locality. The best viewing side exhibits interlocked crystals to 1 cm across, and two knobs or rosettes of fluorite, the largest of which is 2.5 cm across. Valued at $900. Super fluroescence!
