Octahedral crystals of Fluorite, transparent, bright and with nice green color. Accompanied by several aggregates of Geocronite-Jordanite crystals, scattered through the faces, with curved and complex shapes. The analyzes of the Sulphides of these new specimens from the Milpo mine (SEM-EDS and XRD) show a correlation between Geocronite-Jordanite, both are isostructural and forming series. Samples analyzed show that the composition moves in the intermediate zone of the series. Therefore, the correct thing would be to label these specimens as Geocronite-Jordanite. The condition of this specimen is excellent, without any noticeable damage.
