Fluorite with Calcite (new find)

Item Description

From the discovery in 2017 were are proud to offer this wonderful cabinet "plate" of Fluorite in the auctions. Attention Fluorite collectors! As we've mentioned before, we acquired a small parcel of these exciting Fluorite specimens from a good friend in Pakistan who confirmed that they were from the locality at Koh-i-Maran. These specimens are unlike anything we've seen from Pakistan as they seem to have formed outside of the typical pemgatites and metamorphic deposits that we are used to seeing around this area. A few other dealers in Pakistan have confirmed the locale for reference. With that said, this wonderful big cabinet display specimen is loaded with dozens of beautiful purple colored, translucent, well-formed, purple colored cubes of Fuorite smasuring up to 1.9 cm which have a beautiful coverage of sharp, gemmy, nearly colorless Calcite scalenohedra. No real major damage on the display side, and it's beautiful all the way around. The back of the piece actually features some larger beige-silvery colored Calcites and included pocket clay. Originally priced at $1,200 in the inventory, and a great bargain for the size and quality. If you collect Fluorites, be sure to pick up this eye-catching colorful specimen from an obscure new locality!
