Super-sharp, translucent fluorite octahedra (to over 5 cm!) of a light pastel green, growing on the flat "contact" side of another cluster of crystals! This was evidently a very thin sheet of matrix on both sides of which crystals grew, and then later the matrix fell away. You can still see the thin "slot" where the matrix was. Some rough spots on corners, but overall in good shape. Greener, prettier and more impressive in person! 9.2 x 8.4 x 5.6 cm
