Fluorite with Sphalerite and Geocronite

Item Description

From a recent find at the Milpo Mine in Peru here we have a lovely small cabinet specimen featuring a predominant, cuboctahedral crystal of Fluorite measuring 1.6 cm across, with a bit of additional Fluorite showing a saturated blue-green hue, associated with black Sphalerite crystals, sitting on a matrix of dark grey metallic Geocronite. The color of the Fluorite is quite saturated, and glows with color when backlit. The rare Geocronite matrix is was really makes the piece special as this rare lead antimony sulfosalt is hard to find in such rich examples like this, let alone with beautiful Fluorite!
