A fantastic specimen of Kazakhstani fluorite! Found in the late ’80s to early ’90s and not seen since, the minerals of the Kara-Oba Tungsten deposit are becoming increasingly rare and difficult to find on the market. This specimen features numerous purple fluorite octahedrons on top of a well terminated smoky quartz with minor pyrite. An unusually good example of a very rare locale piece destined to be a highly desirable classic, if not already…
