An excellent cluster of clear gemmy Fluorites from the locality of Shangbao. The crystals are water-clear and have the beautiful beveled edges and the orthogonal purple phantoms that make these Fluorites so classic and so desirable. The largest of the crystals is an impressive 1.8 cm. The Fluorites are so gemmy that you can easily see included Fluorites and Calcite needles from the matrix. Ex. Charlie Key stock.
