description:
Very pretty large cabinet specimen with purple semi lustrous trance parent cubic fluorite crystals to almost 4.0 cm on edge throughout this quartz crystal covered matrix with small crystals of sphalerite. Some cleaving present, however overall considering the size of this piece a number of crystals present I think in very good condition.
