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, within this past year, we heard that the mining was FINISHED, apparently for good. So if you do not have one, well, here is a chance at a superb one with huge crystals! We were lucky enough to put some aside before the mining stopped. This is a double floater ball. The larger ball is covered all around with unusually broad, isolated and translucent crystals to 1.5 centimeter in length! The smaller ball is perfect and adorable - I would prefer it displayed with the little ball on top.
