A very large plate loaded with the famous "Blanchard Blue" fluorite. This teal color is not quite like fluorite from anywhere else, and in fact, this specimen came from mining last year where the crystals were intensely saturated with color, as you can see here. This one has a wonderful balance of grouped crystals with others in isolation on contrasting matrix. The crystals measure to around one centimeter. 22 x 13 x 7 cm
