Item Description

A dramatic and excellent CABINET specimen of gorgeous, translucent, strikingly stepped-growth, deep aqua-blue and sea-green fluorite cubes preferentially overgrown with tan, drusy quartz from the less-known Galena King Mine of New Mexico. The broken back reveals the amazingly rich blue color. This is classic New Mexico blue fluorite. Ex Bob Trimingham Collection. Moderate fluorescence.
