Fluorite
specimen number:
9041007
location:
Gaskins Mine, Pope Co., Illinois, USA
description: A stunning large cabinet piece showing sharp deep purple slightly translucent semi lustrous cubic crystals of fluorite to 5.0 cm on edge covering a shapely 28.0 x 20.0 x 13.0 cm matrix. Very minimal and sparse micro-chipping present, overall I think this is in excellent condition especially considering the size of the specimen. Small white crystals of barite scattered throughout. This is superb for this mine. To view a video of this specimen click here.
Size: 28.0 x 20.0 x 13.0 cm (large-cabinet)
