Description

Here we have a fantastic, with a width of about 17 cm very large, bicolor Fluorite single crystal from the famous Elmwood Mine in Tennessee, USA.

This magnificent specimen, weighing about 3 kg, is translucent, lustrous and shows a very nice purple-yellow parquetization on the surface.

The supposed damage on the upper right edge is a natural recess, which is well visible under the microscope, but also in the two detailed photos

This outstanding collector's specimen is in unusually good condition, there is only minor damage.
