A LARGE specimen from the recent finds at Naica - a thick plate of sphalerite serves as the base for a big, rich cluster of tightly intergrown fluorite crystals. Sprinkled across the fluorites are brassy little pyrites, and the pyrites are also richly included INSIDE the fluorite crystals - you can see them clearly when you look into the absolutely transparent "window" faces of the fluorites.
