SOLD
As with the pink fluorites from the same locality, until these creedites were discovered, good crystallized specimens were exceedingly rare and expensive from ANY locality. Suddenly, you could own a really fine creedite without selling your house to get it. Then, a couple of months back, we heard that the mining was FINISHED, apparently for good. So if you do not have one, well, here is another chance. We were lucky enough to put some aside before the mining stopped. This is a LARGE double-ball that actually sits flat on two bits of matrix underneath. They balls are covered with large, gemmy orange creedite crystals to 1.5 centimeter in length! 11.5 x 7.8 x 6.4 cm
