Item Description
The Okorusu Mine is synonymous for producing some of the most attractive Fluorite specimens in the world. It's not only prolific, but has produced Fluorite specimens in virtually every color of the rainbow (that included black and colorless). The range of colors combined with the incredibly high quality of the crystals make for incredibly desirable and beautiful display specimens. This piece is from a discovery about 10 years ago and features a group of razor-sharp, lustrous, VERY gemmy, cubic crystals measuring up to 1.7 cm on edge which show classic internal "phantoms" with a mix of green, blue and purple hues inside. You can see directly through the Fluorites to the underlying matrix. Now there are few contacts, but the piece is in excellent condition overall, and considering it's crystallized all the way around, it would make a fantastic addition to any collection. Valued at $2,500 in the inventory.
