This intricate, large cabinet fluorite plate from the Huangshaping deposit features sharp glassy gemmy crystals with sharp inclusions oriented in hoppered phantom cubes within the crystal. The back of the piece can be seen clearly through crystals wherever inclusions are absent. The inclusions are mostly white material (dolomite?). An amber calcite druse covers the back and a few similarly oriented faces on the display side.
