One of the largest and richest for color that I have seen from the recent finds at an undisclosed location in the hinterlands of New Mexico. This is a THICK (nearly 4 cm!) crust of deep green fluorite (it actually started out purple as you can see where the crystals meet the matrix) with octahedral forms on the "pebbly" surface. 13 x 9 x 6.3 cm
