Kuiu Island in Alaska has produced some very fine, though small Fluorites over the years. Some are octahedral or as in this case, sharp very distinct cubes. This line of crystals snakes along an attractive, drusy Quartz matrix, and the largest crystal is about .7 cm. The luster is silky and beautiful, giving the gemmy crystals a definite, eye-catching pearly glow. Definitely the best of the Kuiu Island Fluorites that I have seen over collecting fluorites for several decades
