This specimen has the deepest green color saturation I have seen in a Naica fluorite, combined with sparkling luster! The crystal is a complex octohedron with many-stepped faces reflecting light, perched up on galena. It is 4 cm across. One of the special fluorites among many in this fine old Mexican mineral collection. Joe Budd photos.
