Very lustrous blue cubes of Fluorite on a light color matrix. The host rock is a mix of Dolomite and Barite with very tiny bits of Hematite in a few spots. The crystals are remarkably sharp and vivid, some show zoning especially distinctly when examined under magnification. England is famed for its many diverse Fluorites but such bright blue color is quite unusual from this region. Sharp small crystals and in fine condition.
