Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Fluorite
Locality: Guangdong Province, China (Locality at mindat.org)
This is the biggest and best specimen we saw at Denver from a new find of HUGE, glass-clear purple fluorites! The octahedrons here measure to 5 cm (!). Not only that, but their form is beautiful, like cut glass with ornate modifications (including bevels, epitaxial growth and repetition of the triangular form in stepped growth on the faces). Note that ALL specimens from this find we have seen have heavy contacts around the periphery of the outer crystals (that is the only way to excavate them), and this one has only one or two little cleaves in the main part of the display face that are hard to find. Overall, for the size, we thought it very fine. 17 x 10.5 x 7 cm
