If you have been searching for that one great Okarusu fluorite, this is it. The main 2.5 cm crystal has superb clarity for the location, an outer zone of purple, and TWO inner well-defined green zones (one of which is a complete central green cube). BETTER In PERSON! By any fluorite definition, this is a killer specimen and a must for the serious collection. This is quite literally one of the best couple of Okorusu specimens for its size that I have seen. It is perfect save for one trivial micro-ding, so insignificant compared to the importance of this piece that my reaction was "So what?" as I gazed at that marvelous green zoning. You can look right through this large crystal to the matrix beneath, it is so clear and transparent! 7.4 x 5.7 x 3.0 cm
