This beautiful interpenetrant twinned pair of octahedral, emerald-lime-green Fluorite crystals makes a fine miniature specimen, with a small, 1.5 cm, rod of coarse-grained, sugary, milky-white Quartz. From the fluorite occurrences at Riemvasmaak, Kakamas, Northern Cape, South Africa, a little-known locality close to the Augrabies Falls National Park and only about 30 km from the south-eastern corner of Namibia. The main display crystal is a distorted octahedron, measuring 3.9 x 2.8 x 2.5 cm, the latter being half the depth of the octahedron, to where the crystal has been detached from in-situ. Both crystals are semi-transparent and have crisp, sharp edges. The apex of the larger distorted crystal has a 'V'-shaped castellated rim. A great South African octahedral Fluorite.
