Perhaps not as instantly showy and spectacular as some of the famous Fluorite specimens that have come from Yaogangxian mine, in Yizhang County, Hunan Province, China, this is nevertheless a very good well-crystallized example. It features several complete and damage free cubic crystals with a fine purple colour and glassy lustre - the largest of which reaches 1.8 cm on edge. These crystals sit within a typical cream crystallized Dolomite and finely crystallized beige to pale silvery-grey Muscovite mica matrix. From one side the Fluorite crystals are really gemmy and a lovely colour, but from the other side the main crystal is slightly frosted on two surfaces, otherwise this would be an exceptional smaller cabinet display specimen all round.
