Item Description

Some of the most colorful and highly displayable Fluorite specimens have come from the famous Okorusu Mine. This locality is not only prolific in terms of size and quality of its Fluorites, but it has produced specimens in virtually every color of the rainbow (including black and colorless). This miniature sized piece is from a discovery about 15 years ago and features a group of sharp, lustrous, VERY gemmy, cuboctahedral crystals measuring up to 2.0 cm on edge which show classic internal "phantoms" with a mix of mostly green and purple hues inside. Most of the crystals are in fine condition, but there are a few minor imperfections here and there. It's crystallized on the front and back, and displays wonderfully as you can see from the photos. Classic material from this famous locality.
