Fluorite with Chalcopyrite
specimen number:
7992486
location:
Minerva mine #1, Hardin Co., Illinois, USA
description:
An attractive grouping of amber colored to light purple cubic mostly gemmy fluorite crystals, the largest 5.0 cm on edge. Small crystals of chalcopyrite are floating throughout as inclusions within the fluorite. Typical of these, slight chipping is present, I think that the specimen is in good condition as seen. This is naturally crystallized all around with no points of attachment.
Size: 9.0 x 6.0 x 5.5 cm (small-cabinet)
