Item Description

Striking, beautiful and unusual bi-colored fluorite cubes are very aesthetically set on the sculptural mounded matrix of rounded clusters of pearlescent muscovite plates. The very glassy, gemmy cubes, to 1.9 cm, are a pretty light green with beautiful purple phantoms. A 1.1 cm lustrous, metallic arsenopyrite crystal is a fine accessory. Purple fluorescence. This less well-known Chinese tungsten and tin mine has produced some outstanding and unusual fluorites and this is a fine example.
