Description

Fluorite from the area arround Uis, Brandberg Region, Namibia.

Purple fluorite "balls" are growing on a matrix of shiny small fluorite crystals.

The last photo was made with some light on black background to separate the nice fluorite balls.

Rare specimen, since unfortunatelly nobody is looking for that kind of mineral - we asked a local miner to bring us some more of that beautiful fluorite in the future.
