We have offered fluorites from the Okarusu in the auction, but this is truly rare for the locality: a large plate of YELLOW and LIGHT PURPLE crystals! I believe these yellow pieces came out of just one pocket earlier this year. This one is distinguished not just by having the yellow crystals, but also light purple ones at the center. This is a far cry from the usual green/dark purple/teal blue fluorites that are classic for the Okarusu. There are a couple of dings, but not much damage to speak of for a piece this size. It is really quite spectacular and different! 16.3 x 11.4 x 4.2 cm
