Item Description

A predominant, 3.6 cm beautiful, VERY GEMMY, sharp, cuboctahedral crystal of Fluorite is associated with rhombic off-white colored Dolomite and small modified Galena crystals. This piece is not from a recent find at the mine, but actually about 35 years ago (late 1970s). For the quality, associations, and overall aesthetics, it is a great miniature from this incredible mine. The Fluorite is a very pale green in color, but the form and crystallization are both excellent!
