A large plate of fluorite crystals from the find a few years back of these super-sharp purple and green octahedra, which are embedded in stark white quartz and then carefully etched out by the miners using acid to expose them. Under good light, you can see the beautiful internal purple and greenish, almost teal hues. The largest crystal you see here is a real whopper, measuring 3.7 cm along the edge.
