specimen number:
2022770
location:
Elmwood Mine, Smith Co., Tennessee, USA
description:
Beautiful deep rosy purple translucent to transparent lustrous cubic crystals of fluorite measuring to 2.2 cm on edge covering most of the top of a 15.0 x 12.0 x 7.5 cm crystallize sphalerite matrix. Minimal micro-chipping present throughout, I still think in very good condition. The backside of the matrix has been shaped with a trim saw. The piece sits up beautifully by itself for display. Shipping weight: 5.28 pounds. Ex Chris and Agatha Galas collection.
Size: 15.0 x 12.0 x 7.5 cm (large-cabinet)
