Fancy combination of milky quartz and fluorite from Brandberg, Namibia.

A lot of these kind of specimens were found in 2019/2020 but unfortunately most of them were damaged or uncleanable overgrown.

Here the greenish flourites with purple on the edges are clear and clean milky quartz were growing in between - partly through the fluorites.
