Fluorite with Chalcopyrite, Calcite
specimen number:
1292009
location:
Minerva mine #1, Hardin Co., Illinois, USA
description:
A cluster of glassy gemmy amber to bluish purple color zoned cubic fluorite crystals with minor chalcopyrite and calcite. Typical of these, slight micro-cleaving is present as shown up close in the video, this particular specimen, in my opinion, is in very good condition. Really attractive when backlit as shown at the end of the video.
