Fluorite, Sphalerite
You can see that this fluorite from the Elmwood Mine shows a unique distinction that a few of the crystals from here have - gemmy golden corners that are actually a bit raised above the surrounding faces. When crystals of this type are large and perhaps damaged, these corners are sometimes cut into gemstones, because they are so pure. There is a bit of sphalerite attached here - the zinc ore that was the reason for the Elmwood Mine. This cluster is complete on the display side, with the back being the flat contact face where the specimen was removed from the matrix - it is not a cleave, but is actually re-healed and has formed micro-faces, so the crystal is technically complete all around!
