FLUORITE WITH HEMATITE INCLUDED QUARTZPöhla MineSchwarzenberg, ErzgebirgskreisSaxony, Germany 4.3 x 3.1 x 1.7 Inches 11 x 8 x 4.5 CentimetersCabinetThis is an older specimen of bea utiful yellow fluorite from a German mine that closed in the early nineties. Sprinkled across the top of the specimen are small hematite included quartz clusters that pop against the yellow cubes. In some areas, hints of hematite have created phantoms inside the fluorite and the individual quartz points growing on crystals is a nice touch. The larger fluorite crystals feature gemmy corners that create interesting refractions inside the crystals. Under shortwave UV light lovely shades of pink and purple zoning patterns appear! Show more
