A fine specimen from recent finds at the Xianghualing Mine of China. The mounded matrix is covered with lustrous, translucent, pastel sea-green fluorite cuboctahedrons with stepped growth faces. The fluorites are, in turn, richly and aesthetically sprinkled with very glassy, colorless, poker-chip calcite crystals to 1.9 cm. This fine combo piece is essentially pristine.
