A dramatic fluorite specimen from an unusual locality for me, this piece has special aesthetics. The fluorites, teal blue and multicolored, are perched atop a nice quartz stalk. While flattish/rough in back, the fluorite is actually complete all around. A sparkly druse of microscopic little pyrite crystals adds a glitter effect to parts of the surface. Sharp geometry and color, combined with the quartz perch, really make this stand out. This was found in 2011.
