Item Description

An unusual and very showy pair of fluorite stalactites from the famous Yaogangxian Mine. Sharp, glassy, transparent to tranlucent, two-toned gray fluorite cubes compose this sculptural specimen. The large stalactite is complete all-around and nearly pristine, with only tiny bit of side wear in one spot. The shorter stalactite is broken. This remains a highly representative and very uncommon fluorite form from this noted locale. No fluorescence.
