Fluorite

Pink Fluorite octahedrons to 7mm on edge on a Quartz crystal. I unfortuanely do not have a locality but it's either from the French or Swiss Alps, 3.7 x 3.3 x 1.7 cm.

Transparent green Fluorite octahedrons to 2 cm in a linear formation, good when viewed from either side. Super color, transparency, no damage, 5.1 x 2.8 x 2.5 cm.

Gemmy purple cubic crystals with bevelled edges. Good quality specimen that looks good when viewed from all directions, size 3 x 2.5 x 2 cm.

Yellow Fluorite with Quartz crystals on two sides, 7 x 7 x 4.2 cm.

Octahedral Fluorite crystals in a flat, oval shaped grouping. The overall shape and the way the luster on the crystals alternates between glossy and matte reminds me of the spinel twin crystals from this mine, but none of the individual crystals appear to be twins. Backside is flat but has some crystal faces. An unusual near floater specimen, size 6 x 5 x 2 cm.

Dassu Mine, Shigar Valley, Pakistan

Superb floater specimen and great combo of blue green Fluorite affixed to one side of a large white Barite crystal. the Barite is frosty in surface luster on the sides with glassy terminations along the edges.
