Green Fluorite Crystal Specimen with Gemmy Cubic Crystals

Mineral: Fluorite

Locality: China

Weight: 1,221 grams

Dimensions: 6.5" × 6.5" × 3"

Description:
This specimen features pale green fluorite crystals forming dense cubic growth across a natural matrix. The fluorite displays translucent to transparent cubic crystals with light green coloration and glassy luster. Both sides of the specimen show clusters of well-formed crystals, including areas of gemmy fluorite cubes. Iron staining and natural mineral matrix are present along portions of the crystal surfaces and edges.

Specimen Details:
Fluorite is a calcium fluoride mineral that crystallizes in the cubic crystal system and commonly forms sharp cubic crystals. It occurs in a wide range of colors including green, purple, blue, yellow, and colorless varieties depending on trace elements and radiation exposure during formation. Fluorite commonly forms in hydrothermal veins associated with lead and zinc mineralization and is widely collected for its crystal structure and color.
