A large plate of sparkly quartz showcases a 13 cm x 9 cm cluster of fine English fluorites! These wonderfully transparent fluorites measure to 1.5 cm along the edge. Intermixed with them, you can see some gray octahedrons of galena. The Rogerley is a classic English locality that has been re-mined over the past five years, turning out a new generation of fine specimens - highly welcomed by collectors, since English fluorites have a special panache and desirability, and have been just so hard to get. The contrast of deep green crystals with the white quartz makes this large specimen truly special. Highly fluorescent. Fluorites from here on such nice contrasting matrix are hard to obtain.
