Description

Superb gemmy and very aerial cubic crystals of fluorite, slightly flattened and bevelled by the rhombic dodecahedron, are implanted on transparent quartz and brown scalenohedral calcite crystals. The fluorite crystals are completely transparent and very bright, which make them hard to photo. Much better in the hand.

From the first limited find, dated back to February 2010.
