Of all the fluorite specimens with galena in this update this is clearly the most dramatic. It is a very heavy, 3-dimensional specimen with a herd of gem fluorites stampeding off the top at you as the viewer, really 3-dimensionally coming off the galena. The lustrous galena crystals to 1.7 cm across are surmounted by gemmy, pastel green and lavender, fluorite crystals to 3.5cm across. Fluorite cubes are modified by octahedral faces and there is also the presence of stepped growth. A superb combo specimen!
