Fluorite

Locality: Grant Co., New Mexico, USA

A transparent, pink and green octahedron of fluorite not from Pakistan but from Grant County, New Mexico! These are hard to obtain in this quality, and trimmed into a fine specimen as this one is. The big (3 cm) octahedron is surrounded by smaller ones on a carefully-trimmed matrix. (Note that these are always found coated and are cleaned to remove the coating). No damage, a superb example of this material! 6.6 x 5.7 x 3.2 cm
