A textbook, deep purple, dodecahedral crystal, nicely centered in the snowy quartz matrix. This is the rarer form of the two sorts of fluorite crystals from the "big find" of last year (the others are the green/purple octahedra). Sometimes these are also labeled as "Yiwu" locality. The crystal here measures almost 3 cm across. 7.2 x 6.5 x 3.6cm
