Description

Very nice cluster of clear fluorite cubes and delicate white barite blades. The largest barite is 1cm and the largest fluorite cube is .7cm. The clarity of the fluorite is exceptional and embedded barite blades and other inclusions are clearly visible. A bit of hematite staining gives portions of this specimen a pinkish hue. Very few specimens from this mine come out this intact as we have to work 15 feet off the ground in a narrow seam.
