Item Description
A nifty looking specimen of a 2.0 cm, radial aggregate of translucent, cream-colored strontianite jauntily perched atop a boxwork limestone matrix covered with calcite and colorless, fluorite microcrystals. The fluorite fluorescences purple and the strontianite has a mellow-yellow fluorescence.
