Item Description
The Huanzala mine in Peru has produced some of the most attractive and impressive Fluorites from all of South America. The mine has produced both green and pink Fluorites, and even pieces with both colors in the same crystal. This highly modified Fluorite crystals on this specimen are a cominbation of cube, octahedron and dodecahedron which have a lovely "water green" color with excellent translucency and are nicely isolated and associated on lustrous Pyrite crystal matrix. The largest Fluorite group measures 5.0 cm across. No real damage that I can find with the naked eye. It is certainly one of the better matrix Huanzala Fluorite specimens that I have had to offer in a while. Valued at $1800 in the inventory.
