An AESTHETIC and DRAMATIC Erongo Mountains specimen from the Marty Zinn Collection. A gorgeous, gemmy, 2.2 cm fluorite cube is very jauntily set on a promontory atop muscovite and feldspar matrix. The pristine, large cube is beautifully two-toned, emerald-green and colorless and is nicely complimented by smaller fluorites. The fluorite cube crystal faces are preferentially water-clear or lightly frosted; a nice effect.
