Fluorite (GEMMY crystals)

Item Description

This is a good quality and showy display specimen of Fluorite from the Xianghualing Mine featuring very gemmy, light green colored cubes with pronounced dodecahedral modifications on the edges measuring up to 3.2 cm on edge, and no matrix. The piece is in very good condition all around, and displays beautifully as you can see from the photos. If you collect Fluorites or minerals of China, don't miss out on this attractive piece from this prodigious specimen producing locality. These pieces seemingly have dried up, and they will go down as some of the most iconic and beautiful display quality Fluorites from any Chinese locality. From the collection of Vasco Trancoso, a medical doctor and prominent mineral collector from near Lisbon, Portugal (https://www.mindat.org/user-11954.html). He assembled his mineral collection over the course of 60 years, and built a fine worldwide display collection that we recently purchased.
