An unusual specimen of fluorite, as this habit is rare for the locale. These robust, translucent, slightly pastel pinkish crystals are to 2.75 cm across. The fluorites are perched on a curving bit of quartz cavity that serves as host for a 2 cm galena crystal underneath. The galena is partially altered to anglesite, as are many from this locality. Interesting combination piece, overall. Ex. Harold Urish Collection.
