Description
A superb and aesthetic specimen of lustrous light purple Fluorite , forming almost ball-like crystals to 1.2 cm, from Cochise County in Arizona, USA. The somewhat rounded crystal habit is attributed to the repeat formation of the octahedral faces. The Fluorite crystals are pleasingly clustered and scattered over a white Quartz epimorph shell after an undefined mineral.
