Purple crystals of fluorite up to 5 mm on quartz Photo & collection: Conny Larsson

Purple octahedrons of Fluorite up to 9 mm on matrix Collection & photo: Conny Larsson

Semi-spherical fluorite aggregates on mm-sized quartz crystals. The largest aggregate is 14mm across. I find the concentric growth of the fluorite aggregates interesting ( see child photo). The bottom of the specimen is sawed.

Crust of nicely colored fluorite crystals on matrix. As can be seen in the child photo, several generations of lilac and white fluorite has crystallized in veins in the host rock. The base of the specimen is sawed.
