Fine plate of very uniform .5 cm Fluorite crystals that are gemmy with a silky transparent luster. The lovely yellow color is very reminiscent of the famous Fluorites of Asturias, Spain that came out in the 70's and 80's. What make this specimen unique are the three generations of crystals. First are pure yellow crystals, followed by a generation of yellow cubes with a small, well-defined brown core. The final generation consists of yellow crystals with a much larger central brown core. Very attractive. And this is from Erongo, no less!
