32549: Fluorite and Quartz - $40 Manaoshan Mine, Dongpo ore field, Suxian District, Chenzhou, Hunan, China Small cabinet - 7.6 x 6.5 x 4.8 cm 278 grams Fluorescent (LW) Specimen status: Available Send an email with specimen number to order Beautifully transparent, light green
fluorite with interesting stepped growth on the faces. The
large flat face allows one to gaze inside and see that
this specimen is nearly 100% faceting rough (although that
would be an ignominious fate for such an icy fluorite).
Minor, microcrystalline quartz adds some sparkle. Purple
fluorescence under longwave UV.One small cleave or
contact, otherwise complete all around. This fine specimen
displays quite nicely.
