Item Description

The sculptural mounded matrix is covered with intergrown, lustrous, translucent, yellowish-green fluorite cubes with satiny lustre. The cubes are aesthetically accented with clusters of glassy, pearlescent creamy barite blades. The large barite cluster is 3.3 cm. The fluorite stepped-growth faces give a nice 3-dimensional aspect to the cubes, to 1.8 cm, on this excellent and rare cabinet combination. Pristine in the interior. Bright blue-purple fluorescence. An excellent combination small cabinet we received in a small lot from a New Find at this obscure Chihuahua mine. Fluorite is rare from here. It has multiple fine display views.
