A thin crust of quartz, with crystals reaching 1 cm in length, is the matrix for a beautifully nestled octahedral, gemmy, emerald-green fluorite crystal that measures 3.7 cm across. As with others in this pocket, it is RAZOR SHARP, pristine, and completely transparent. When backlit, one can see through the crystal all the way to its matrix. For added measure there is a smaller, finely crystallized fluorite attached to the larger one. The association with quartz, how the fluorite is perched up as if in a tree of quartz, really adds to its appeal as a specimen. Comes with a custom lucite base for display.
