From this small but remarkable find in 2005-6 came a lot of fine Fluorites. I had the rare opportunity to be at the site as the pocket zone was emptied and selected a suite of the best pieces. This was one. Some later pockets did not reach this quality and had a lot of damage. This is in person, this is a killer, perfect, undamaged. I sold it in 2006, it is exceptional, with strong magnification there is NO damage. The crystals are all complete, razor sharp, gemmy with clearly seen zoned clay phantoms. We are very glad to have this piece back to resell!
