A fine fluorite specimen from the Yaogangxian Mine of China. Two water-clear, lustrous, lightly etched, sea foam-green fluorite cubes with interesting, interior, purple phantoms, are aesthetically stacked on top of each other like stair-steps. The cubes rest upon a matrix of quartz and bladed ferberite.
