Fluorite - Calcite

0 for sale·Member since 2026
Dimensions: 6.3 x 4.6 x 8.1cm Locality: Baicheng Co., Akesu Prefecture, Xinjiang, China Such an intense yet luminous violet; there are few, if any, similar deposits worldwide that have yielded such a beautiful color. The crystals are perfect, and the harmony of the piece is excellent. This specimen comes from a relatively recent deposit in Xinjiang; unfortunately, very few high-quality pieces were extracted, and many have remained in Chinese collections. Dimensions without the acrylic base, which is supplied with the mineralogical specimen. The mineral is not glued to the base (flexible sealant).
