Very few of these fluorite specimens from this remote locality came out, because the two miners who found them ultimately decided that the incredibly harsh working conditions, and the fact that the specimens were found one at a time rather than in rich groups, made it unfeasible to collect them. At any rate, they have a unique, really pretty look to them, and often, these flattened rectangular crystals that are really distinctive. Ex. A. Martaud Collection.
