This is an unusually glassy and bright YELLOW fluorite, the rarer color from the region, with a phantom outer layer of rich purple. It is nicely accented by small, sparkling Baryte and calcite crystals! In person, it is somewhat better - its hard to shoot because of the luster and the mix of internal colors.
