Fluorite

Okorusu Mine, Otjiwarongo District, Otjozondjupa Region, Namibia

Miniature

3.5 x 2.6 x 2.4 cm

This little cluster of Fluorite from Okorusu is a showstopper! It has good lustre, and a mixture of pink and yellow colours punctuated by intense dark purple zoning. This zoning is present on the three main crystal faces, and lighting can be adjusted to highlight these no matter which direction it is mounted in. There is a bit of damage to the edges of the main cubic crystals, but it does not distract from the piece. A very unique piece from this world famous locality!
