Fluorites from the Sweet Home were overshadowed by their glorious associates, the red rhodochrosites, and were typically seen as association crystals on specimens dominated by rhodo. In this case, you have a large plate on which the fluorites are the star - pretty little light blue razor-sharp cubes, beautifully set off by slender quartz crystals and dark crystals of tetrahedrite. Dave Stoudt acquired this specimen from Collectors Edge back in 1992, when it came out. From the Rainbow Pocket.
