The exceptional clarity of these fluorite crystals makes me think this is from the older finds from maybe 10 years ago at the Okarusu rather than the more recent finds. They have a gorgeous greenish-teal color, and measure to over 2 cm on edge. The backside of this cluster is covered with small crystals as well, indicating that the cluster was loose in the pocket, allowing crystals to form on what used to be the matrix attachment face.
