Very pretty, color-zoned, purple fluorite cubes are richly and aesthetically scattered on the sintered-looking, sturdy, sculptural, cabinet matrix on this fine specimen from a brand new find at the Mina Ojuela. The fluorite cubes, to 8 mm, are transparent, highly lustrous and the crystal faces are lightly etched, giving the cubes a waxy luster. This excellent piece is essentially pristine. All of the cubes are pristine. The vivid purple color-zoning makes these highly attractive Mina Ojuela fluorites that compare very favorably with those recovered from any era.
