Fluorite on Calcite

Huanggang Mine, Inner Mongolia, China
8 x 5 x 4 cm — small-cabinet
Specimen ID: mm/TL115

Three octahedral pink Fluorite crystals associated with platy white Calcite crystals. The Fluorite crystals are translucent pink with areas of green Byssolite inclusions and reach 3.5cm wide. This was purchased directly at the mine by a friend in China years ago, shipped to me, and held in my collection ever since. It was one of only a few available that had the association of the white Calcite crystals. In addition to the Calcite, the backside has two clusters of a metallic silver-colored mineral, possibly Lollingite. Well crystallized all around and undamaged (a floater). Ex. Mike Keim.
