Fluorite

Unknown Owner
A rare locality in New Mexico that has been defunct since the early 90s, the Pine Canyon Deposit produced these lovely purple fluorite octahedrons. With its great color and unique surface texture, fluorite from Pine Canyon has captivated collectors since it first appeared on the market in the 1970s, but it is rarely seen on the contemporary market.
