Calcite : CaCO3, Fluorite : CaF2 | |
|
Mun. de Melchor Múzquiz, Coahuila, Mexico This is a unique combo specimen, the likes of which I have not seen before from the locality! A cluster of translucent, frosted, tabular, cream colored, fishtail-twins of Calcite is aesthetically perched on deep purple cubes of lustrous fluorite. All are translucent, in person, though its hard to convey the fluorite's color without overexposing ... |

Tule Mine, Melchor Múzquiz, Mun. de Melchor Múzquiz, Coahuila, Mexico 20.5 x 9.7 x 2.9 cm. You almost never see one of these celestines from Musquiz that is complete and undamaged. But this is a floater that is complete all the way around, with the typical serrated edges. It has a nice pearly luster, too, and is translucent. But what caps it off is this purple fluorite - that sits right on its edge! A large, ... |

Fluorite : CaF2 | |
|
Mun. de Melchor Múzquiz, Coahuila, Mexico This is one of the most aesthetic Musquiz fluorites I have seen. Most are matrix-free, undifferentiated clusters, but this cluster is perched beautifully atop a matrix and has a sculptural form of its own ! It shows the wonderful complex, stepped form this fluorite locality is famous for, and fine purple color. A real showpiece, rare in this ... |
