Size: 2.7x2.2x2.2cm
Species: Fluorite
Locality: Erongo Mountains, Karibib Constituency, Erongo Region, Namibia
Description: A beautiful undamaged apple green fluorite with a combination of cubic and octahedral crystal faces sits perched on top of a bed of lustrous yellow mica. For some reason when the fluorite was being etched in the pocked the cubic faces retained a glassy luster and the octahedral faces were more etched giving the fluorite crystal a lovely mixture of textures. This is a very well balanced and aesthetic specimen. Note in all photos it is shown without backlight. Under backlight this specimen is a lovely neon green.
