Fluorite
In the early 1990's, good minerals from Dal'negorsk were plentiful, but today most of the mines there are closed, making specimens such as this one sell at a premium if they turn up at all. This is from one of the older mines there, and the gem-green variety was always rare even back then. The pastel green color, total transparency, and high luster of the large fluorite cube is superb. That crystal is almost 1 inch across! It can probably be trimmed to an even better balanced miniature. The most accurate shot for color is the photo in the upper-left.
