Description

Fluorite from Brandberg area, Namibia.

Nice purple fluorites forming "balls". Small transparent cubical fluorites are located in between. Due to the closly clustered purple balls and the mass of transparent crystals this piece is very shiny. One of the best specimens I got from that location.

These new kind of fluorit specimens were found around the Brandberg and small-scale mining started in 2021 - so for sure not often seen on the market.
