This great small cabinet-sized crystal aggregate of classic green cubic Fluorite from Okorusu mine, Otjiwarongo District, Namibia is an interesting discovery within the Weyand Collection in Tsumeb. Clearly, not a recent find, it presents the beautiful translucency known from Okorusu mine, so that with back-lighting the vibrancy of colour and superb zonation really stands out. With green cores and interiors, the outer edges of the Fluorite cubes present a deep teal-blue, to almost electric blue colour. The well balanced cluster of cubes on a small core of rock matrix, features individual crystals reaching 3 cm on edge and although there is some minor chipping to crystals around the periphery it is in overall very good condition. In daylight, the intensity of the green colour is remarkable (more of an emerald-green) and much more spectacular than seen in photography.
