Beautiful grouping of light purple mostly gemmy lustrous cubic fluorite crystals measuring to 3.0 cm on edge. Small cubic crystals of lustrous galena and black sphalerite are scattered throughout. This is crystallized on both sides and very choice. Nice when backlit. The sphalerite crystals show slight translucency and a deep red color with strong lighting. Collected in the early 1980s.
