This is STUNNING. The crystal is 2.7 cm across, absolutely limpi dand transparent, and stands dramatically off the matrix on full display. It has a riveting phantom, deep purple, asymettrically included. The overall effect is striking. This is a large miniature or small cab (trechnically), but is in any case one of the finest fluorites in quality I have seen around, for this mine. It is just so stereotypically perfect in its form and symmetry, in its display, but that off-center phantom adds the tweak needed to make it world class for its size range.
