Fluorite With Celestine
Clay Center Quarry, Ottawa Co., Ohio, USA
Cabinet, 9.5 x 5.0 x 5.0 cm
SOLD

From finds in 2007-2008, this is a really superb small cabinet piece featuring three crystals laid next to each other, with minor accenting celestine. The piece is complete and 3-dimensional all around, except for some very minor edge wear on the back. Most of these specimens have contact problems, from how they were recovered and chopped out of the surrounding rocks. This, however, is in unusually good condition for the size and style. This material is HIGHLY fluorescent, a ghostly blue-white color under UV light. Moreover, it phosphoresces strongly as well, after the light is removed. Joe Budd photos
