Fluorite with Sphalerite
specimen number:
4951709
location:
Elmwood mine, Smith Co., Tennessee, USA
description:
A beautiful grouping of glassy mostly gemmy cubic fluorite crystals, the largest measuring 3.5 cm on edge, with sharp lustrous black crystals of sphalerite. Micro-cleaving is present, in my opinion this specimen is still in very good condition. Originally obtained through German dealer Helmut Bruckner, this was collected in the early 2000s.
