This is a really interesting Blanchard fluorite, in that in addition to having crystals of the classic "Blanchard blue," it also has a separate cluster of purple crystals - and the largest crystal is "half-and-half." Rare to have both on the same specimen. The big "half and half" crystal measures 2 cm along the edge. The clusters are nicely isolated on a bed of quartz crystals.
