Fluorite
specimen number:
2051721
location:
Heights Quarry, Weardale, Co. Durham, England, UK
description:
The top side of this 12.0 x 8.0 x 3.5 cm matrix is richly scattered with gemmy green glassy crystals of cubic fluorite to 1.7 cm on edge. Very minimal micro-chipping present, this mainly confined to the edges of the piece. I think this in terrific condition. Excellent example for this locality and quite showy. Brightly fluorescent. Shipping weight: 0.93 pounds. Ex Phil Martin collection.
