Fluorite (new find)

Item Description

Attention Fluorite collectors! From a new find in early 2017, we acquired a small parcel of these exciting Fluorite specimens from a good friend in Pakistan who tells me that these attractive and interesting pieces are coming from Balochistan, which is probably best known for it's beautiful fiery "Alpine-type" Brookite specimens. This is certainly not what one would expect from this area, but I have seen a few specimens in the hands of other Pakistani dealers, and they all say they're coming from Baluchistan. This attractive small cabinet display specimen featrues sharp intergrown / layered cubes of Fluorite that show a bit of color zoning with purple cores that give way to colorless zoning on the exterior edges. When the piece is backlit, the color really shines through. Minor attached Calcite scalenohedra can be seen on the piece. We will have a few more of these to offer in the coming weeks and months, and you will see colors ranging from purples, to blues to pinks to colorless and even some smoky hues! If you're a Fluorite collector, don't miss out on this eye-catching colorful specimen from an obscure new locality! Priced at $450 in the inventory.
