From the extremely exciting NEW FIND at this CLASSIC locality - a superb combo specimen. On a bed of lustrous crystals of galena, sphalerite and a few chalcopyrites is a complex compound crystal of fluorite with a beautiful min-green hue. Modified, beveled cubes seem to be growing out of a central, more nebulous fluorite "base." The cubes have clear "windows" into the transparent interior of the fluorite.
