Here is one amazing top end specimen of fluorite.
Large inter-grown cubes of fluorite make up this beautiful specimen, up to 6 cm.
It has some etched surfaces that have very high luster.
This amazing yellow fluorite has blue with purple outer zoning filled with tiny chalcopyrites.
Sprinkled around the specimen are micro calcite crystals.
The fluorite has some amazing areas with rainbow iridescence within.
The specimen has some amazing fluorescence, as seen in the second video,
the yellow fluoresces a pinkish color, while the out color zones are a blight blue color.
All cube edges are sharp and well defined, only one very slight chip on one edge can be seen.
The only cleave section, is on an outer edge, which on display cannot be seen.
A real beauty on display!
