Double terminated clear Quartz crystal with inclusions of purple Fluorite crystals. These were found one time perhaps 10 years ago and have not been found since. I count 5 included Fluorite crystals plus some neat negative crystals where the Fluorite dissolved away. A couple tiny edge chips but basically undamaged. A now hard to find rarity!
