Fluorite - French, zoned crystals
Cote Rousse Quarry, Vensat. Riom, Puy-du-Dome
Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, France
4.5 x 4.1 x 1.8 CM (miniature)
price: $270
Post Tucson 2022
A pretty miniature with excellent color, luster and definition. The crystals are mostly a good orange color and show a thin phantom line in contrasting purple. By naked eye this looks to be in fine undamaged condition but magnification shows some very tiny cleaves that need to be mentioned. A less well-known French locality, the Cote Rousse Quarry, this is an choice small example of well-defined Fluorite phantoms.
