Fluorite


Fluorite : CaF2

Photo Copyright © Tony Peterson  - This image is copyrighted. Unauthorized reproduction prohibited.
An exquisite optical fluorite miniature, 4 cm long, with no external damage - its only flaw, if it is that, is an internal cleavage plane in two individual crystals. The calcite-rich matrix has a single, nearly invisible contact point. Several perspectives are needed to appreciate this specimen, and they are provided. Collection and photo, T. Peterson.
