A beautiful, gem-like, water-clear, purple, cuboctahedral fluorite crystal from an UNCOMMON Argentine locality - Papachacra, Catamarca Province. The purple coloration and color intensity are in a very interesting swirl pattern. Some of the crystal faces are water-clear, while others are lightly frosted, giving a very nice effect. Ex. Dave Stoudt Collection.
