A phenomenal Aussie specimen...This just has to be one of the best Tasmanian fluorite specimens around, considering that none of the mines have ever been really noted for fine fluorite and here is a CABINET piece with an in-your-face huge crystal atop a mound of smaller crystals. The single largest face is more than 5 cm across! It has a stunning seafoam-green-blue color to it, excellent luster, and very good transparency right down to the matrix underneath. The crystal is complete on the display face and sides, slightly contacted on the rear edges and the back only. The matrix piece features stepped growth, light pastel green, lustrous and gemmy, fluorite crystals.
