Beautiful blue, glassy, transparent fluorite cubes to 4.5 cm form a fine, elongated, cabinet specimen from the famous fluorite mines of La Collada, Spain. Some of the cubes are nicely accented with purple edge phantoms and the highly lustrous crystal faces have interesting, micro stepped-growth. This is a large, highly representative example of the species and locale and has outstanding blue color for the locality.
