Description

This is by far, the most valuable specimen at this auction. I took it off the website and decided to risk it here, as part of the liquidation auctions that I am launching till the end of this year. I added a reserve price at apx 1/5 of my cost for it! So here is museum-sized fluorite from La Viesca. Cubic crystals of fluorite up to 5cms(!!) with a nice bluish-purplish color and color-zoning, very good luster and in excellent condition for the size!
