Sharp, gemmy, freestanding fluorites to 1.75 cm, with subtle color gradations and phantoms, are perched upon porcelain dolomite crystals, on this really show small cab. The fluorites are completeall around and perched on beautiful, contrasting dolomite crystals. A quartz shooting up next to one fluorite is a welcome accent. This specimen has crystals with particularly deeply colored purple cores in seafoam green cushions of later fluorite around them. It is MUCH more 3-dimensional and colorful in person. This is from a new pocket found at the end of 2008, and quietly trickled into Tucson in 2009. It should be remembered as a very distinct style, something different from any we have seen before for the mine or a fluorite combination.
