This find of fluorite at the prolific Okarusu Mine was different than anything seen there before - the crystals containing sharp, cubic phantoms, sometimes rotated within the containing crystal. The crystal faces, in places, are complex, with intricate micro-stepping. They have a very high luster and rich purple color.
