A very unusual and fine cabinet specimen from a recent find at the Okorusu Mine of Namibia. This specimen amply demonstrates the unusual variety of colors and color combinations from this well-known locale. The very 3-dimensional surface is covered with lustrous, transparent to translucent, bi-colored, intensely stepped-growth faced fluorite cubes to 3.7 cm. The cubes have sea-green centers with variably shaded purple corners and edges. This piece is a curved crust of solid fluorite. Beautiful, large and uncommon material from this noted locale.
