While Sweet Home Mine is famously known for its world-class Rhodochrosite specimens, the locality also produced many wonderful specimens of fluorite. This large cabinet combo specimen from the 1990s displays beautifully on both sides, leaving it up to the collector to determine their favorite display side! On one side, many sky blue fluorite crystals (to 0.6cm) scatter across sharp, frosted needle quartz crystals with some associated pyrite - desirable associations of the locality. The alternate side of the plate is completely covered with fluorite. Blue fluorite from Sweet Home is not commonly seen at market. Most available specimens are of the purple variety. ex. Gary Weaver Collection. Gary amassed a collection of over 2000 specimens from Mexico, Peru, Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, Utah and Nevada.
