Fluorite with Pyrite, Calcite

specimen number:
4951241

location:
El Hammam Mine, Meknes, Meknes-Tafilalet, Morocco

description:
Light yellow partly gemmy cubic lustrous crystals of fluorite measuring to 2.5 cm on edge forming a matrix less cluster with white crystallized calcite and golden micro crystals of pyrite. Slight cleaving to some of the very small calcite crystals as seen in the video, the specimen is still in good condition. Under of longwave ultraviolet light, the fluorite crystals fluoresce a nice violet in color, the calcite crystals red, making a neat color combination.
