Item Description
An impressive large color-zoned fluorite cube from this famous mine. The gemmy and lustrous crystal has frosted faces with nifty dense stepped-growth. The light purple crystal hosts striking, sharp phantoms and zones of pretty baby-blue and two shades of violet. In great shape and nearly pristine. The three primary faces have only a couple of spots of trivial edge wear, which is certainly only a modest detraction. Classic large Minerva Mine fluorite with modest purple fluorescence.
