Nearly transparent and very lustrous, this cluster of fluorite crystals, to 3.5 cm across, exhibits an exciting, electric blue color that you have to see in person to understand fully (photos do not do it well). Faint color zoning is also present. A druse of colorless calcite crystals adheres to a few fluorite faces. Superb but MUST be seen in person to be appreciated! Mined in 1981 and from the Ross Lillie collection. RCL# 1905.
