For a time there we were unable to get any more decent specimens of pink fluorite from our supplier. Then, this fine new batch came in, and they cherry-picked the lot for us before distributing it! Until these pink fluorites were discovered in Mexico, Peru and the Alps were the only sources for pink fluorite, and the cost of a specimen such as this was (and still is) astronomical from those localities. These DEEP PINK octahedrons measure to about 1.5 cm. 13.7 x 9.1 x 3.9cm
