Fluorite with Galena (uncommon association for the locality)

Item Description

I want to point out that this particular combo from Huanzala is hard to find, specifically GREEN Fluorite with Galena. In the past we've seen attractive pink colored crystals with Galena from this famed locality, but green crystals are few and far between in my experience. With that said, I actually did a double take on this one, as when I first picked it up, I thought it was from the Naica Mine in Mexico, but the fact that it's from Huanzala makes it much more desirable. Dozens of very sharp, highly lustrous, GEMMY, soft green colored cubes of Fluorite measuring up to 8 mm on edge are intermixed with bright silvery Galena and a bit of black Sphalerite on matrix. The majority of the Fluorite crystals are undamaged and some of them are so transparent, that you can see straight through them to the matrix underneath. A cool locality specimen for any fan of worldwide Fluorites or specifically minerals of the Huanzala Mine.
