Fluorite
Okorusu Mine
Otjiwarongo, Otjozondjupa Region, Namibia
8.9 cm x 7.3 cm x 4.2 cm
Out of an old collection, comes this beautiful fluorite from Okorusu.
Here is a very impressive early specimen of fluorite from this famed mine.
This is from an early discovery at the mine around 1984 which eventually became A pit.
Amazing large inter-grown and twinned cubes up to 4.4 cm.
Beautiful multicolored fluorite with green, blue and purple zones,
that show well without back light, but even better with back lighting.
The camera lens brings out more of the blue coloring, than what the eye sees.
It looks more green until you apply back light, then all the color zoning really pops.
No real damage anywhere.
A top end specimen for any collection.
