Item Description
Transparent to translucent, glassy, colorless to light green fluorite cubes form a showy specimen from recent finds at Naica. Many of the crystal faces have nifty, frosted, stepped-growth faces. The included galena crystals add much character. The bit of matrix has galena, sphalerite and quartz. Periphery wear is noted, but this remains a highly representative example of the species and famed locale.
