Pastel pink and green transparent to translucent Fluorite crystals grace a matrix of fine-grained Muscovite. Fluorite from the pegmatites of Pakistan is not uncommon and they have produced some impressive pieces. Two Fluorite crystals dominate this piece and both have pastel pale blue-green centers and pastel pink rims with the largest crystal measuring 3.5 cm across and the other 2.3 cm. The octahedral form is prevalent along with cube modifications. Both crystals are in excellent condition with no damage, just a few internal fracture traces. Depending on the orientation, one can see right through the Fluorite to the underlying Muscovite matrix.
