Fluorite with Calcite
specimen number:
1302076
location:
Cave in Rock, Hardin Co., Illinois, USA
description:
An attractive grouping of translucent lustrous fluorite crystals with little attached matrix. Small crystals of calcite are scattered throughout. On the left edge of the piece one crystal corner is cleaved as seen. Slight micro-chipping present as well. Overall however, I think in good condition. Quite pretty when backlit.
