A long list of species on this early (2000) Yaogangxian specimen that features a prominent bright purple Fluorite. The Fluorite is a stepped cube that shows perfectly the stairlike form of this habit. In excellent condition, this has an intense deep color and contrasts with the other species on the specimen. Esthetic and an unusual habit for this famed locality, the stepped form is better known in Green crystals from Shangbao (Hunan Province) but very rare at Yaoganxian.
