Fluorite
Ruyuan fluorite mine, Ruyuan Co., Shaoguan Prefecture, Guangdong Province, China
Cabinet, 9.9 x 9.9 x 4.7 cm
SOLD
The Ruyuan Mine did not produce these fluorites in quantity, and then the mining seemed to end not long after it began. They are now very difficult to find in specimens with sharp, complete and un-contacted crystals, as on this specimen. These octahedrons measure to 4 cm across, and have the best color and translucency for this find. They are attractively arranged on the matrix. The largest crystal has naturally modified flattened tips. Remarkably free of damage, and again, very hard to obtain now in good specimens!
