Item Description

Intergrown, glassy, transparent to translucent gray fluorite cubes, to 2.7 cm, form an an impressive multi-sided large specimen from this Nevada locale. Interestingly, sparkly drusy quartz preferentially coats one side of the piece and subdues the bright purple fluoresence. The scattered brown crusts could be realgar. A very showy and excellent large specimen from this locale, that is essentially pristine.
