Item Description
China keeps producing great quailty, crystallized display specimens and has provided collectors with more fine quality minerals than virtually any other country in recent memory. This specimen hosts very attractive, gemmy, purple and green color "phanthom" cubes of Fluorite with great luster and very sharp faces sitting on Quartz crystals on matrix. The largest Fluorite crystal measures 17 mm on edge. Good quality overall, just a little bit of roughness, but DIFFICULT to photograph. BETTER in person.
