Group of octahedral Fluorite crystals with curious dome-shaped tetrahexahedral terminations at the vertices. Translucent, with a uniform pale green color and on a Quartz matrix with small Pyrite crystals. Fluorite specimens from this little known mine are scarce and even more so those of a certain quality. Peregrina Mine, Guanajuato, Municipio Guanajuato Mexico. Fluorescent long & short UV. Former Jan Buma collection. Number 010649. Reference: FK27AL9
