A terrific example of the gorgeous green translucent octahedrons of fluorite from Grant County that have a look all their own. They have a smooth, melty-looking surface, and yet form well-defined octahedrons. They really light up and glow a beautiful green color under good light! This cluster has wrapped itself around a chunk of matrix, on all sides. The fluorites measure up to 2 cm along the edge. NEW FIND!
