Description

A very rare specimen from the 3rd cavern of the famous summit-cleft - these ice-blue to blue-green fluorites came only from one small pocket! The translucency is extremly high; it doesn´t need backlight at all - daylight or even a light background is enough to expose this wonderful color.
