Item Description

Here we have a gorgeous miniature sized display specimen from this prolific locality. The famous Okorusu Mine is one of the premier Fluorite producing localities in the world. It has been the source of some incredibly fine quality multicolor specimens for many years. I have literally seen Fluorite specimens in every color of the rainbow (that included black and colorless) from Okorusu. This piece is from a discovery about 10 years ago and features a group of very sharp, lustrous, VERY gemmy, cubic crystals measuring up to 1.1 cm on edge which show classic internal "phantoms" with a mix of green, blue and purple hues inside. The added touch to this specimen are a few stark white scepter habit Quartz crystals! There is only minor matrix, so the piece is mostly Fluorite. Fine quality and such a fantastic mix of color! Valued at $750 in the inventory.
