Item Description
Gorgeous, sea-green, fluorite octahedrons richly cover the granodiorite matrix on this beautiful and showy specimen from a very famous and ancient Spanish silver-lead-zinc-iron mine. These came out in the 1980s. The sharp octos reach 7 mm and are gemmy and lustrous. Excellent, highly representative material from this locale. Super purple fluorescence. Ex Larry Krause Collection. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!
