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, about six months ago, we heard that the mining was FINISHED, apparently for good. This is a huge specimen of intergrown balls of creedite, covered with gemmy orange creedite crystals. There are about a dozen separate crystal balls here. A specimen of creedite this large and rich was utterly unimaginable until this find!
