Item Description

Densely intergrown, emerald-green, translucent fluorite octahedrons with frosted faces comprise this striking and excellent solid two-sided crust from this well-known Colorado locale. The octos reach about 1.1 cm and the clusters of tiny quartz points and calcite crystals on both sides are a fine contrast and typical accessories. Old and classic rich Colorado material, seldom available. Excellent purple fluorescence. Ex H.R. McBroom and Allen Dillwith Collections.
