This interlocked cluster of gemmy fluorite crystals has perhaps the most deeply colored green chromophore of any specimen here, so far, in this update. The crystals show stepped growth and all appear to be cubes modified by octahedral faces. They are all GEMMY. The largest crystal is 2.8 cm across. And as a bonus, the specimen also has inclusions of bright pyrite as well as pyrite crystals to 1.0 cm across scattered on the fluorite. A really unique piece! Its good anyhow, but the pyrite makes it that much more.
