This material gobbled up as soon as it appeared, and the mining of it was very short-lived. What you have are large, glowing, translucent green crystals of fluorite on an earlier generation of grayish-purple fluorite crystals that you can see through the interiors of the green ones. This specimen has a whopper 6.5-cm crystal amongst the others (it does have a small, shallow cleave, but there is very little damage at all on this specimen overall). 11.3 x 9.7 x 6.3cm
