Group of crystals with a very unusual double habit, with two growth phases very marked by the difference in color. A first one that forms a very intense and bright violet octahedral interior, only visible because the second phase, whitish in color and somewhat less bright, with the shapes of the cube and octahedron, allows the tips of the former octahedron to stand out, like small pyramids on a plane. The sample is from the Casado Margolles collection (number FRM 270) whose record we will send to the buyer.
Tounfit, Boumia, Midelt Province, Drâa-Tafilalet Region Morocco
Specimen size: 12.4 × 7.6 × 4.2 cm = 4.88” × 2.99” × 1.65”

TW27AH0: Fluorite

A novelty at Tucson 2018. A group of translucent Fluorite crystal cubes with a very deep green color and marine-blue dichroism, clearly visible in sunlight. The locality is totally new and, even though Madagascar is a well-known mineralogical paradise, there were no references to Fluorite occurrences other than the small crystals included in Quartz from Mandronarivo.

EBR96CD4: Fluorite

Two Fluorite crystals, one of them clearly dominant, with a little Galena matrix. They are green, gem quality (very luminous and transparent), with perfectly defined faces and edges, dominant octahedron forms and the vertices truncated by the pinacoid. A little treasure.

Specimen size: 1.9 × 1.8 × 1.3 cm = 0.75” × 0.71” × 0.51”

SV2240TRM: Fluorite

Aggregate of Fluorite crystals of complex crystallography where cubic and tetrahexahedron forms dominate, with geometric color zoning trending towards mauve on the edges of the crystals, very deep in some areas, and yellowish green tones towards the center of the crystals.

JFD125AO4: Fluorite

Le Burc is one of the three localities in the triad of French blue fluorites, together with Le Beix and Puy-Saint-Gulmier. Obviously this piece does not have a particularly intense blue, but at the time I liked its transparency, perfection and, why not, its color, since although it is far from the electric blue of other fluorites in that triad, it is nevertheless fine and elegant.

NA37AK1: Fluorite

Really peculiar is this cubic Fluorite, a floater with very marked polycrystalline growths, translucent and with geometric color zoning, more intense in the nucleus of the crystal. With geometric cavities that suggest the previous existence of trigonal crystals, probably Calcite, that have subsequently dissolved. The locality is very little known and even less known for pieces of this quality.

Spheroidal growth of small translucent Fluorite crystals, with great luster and an intense and uniform emerald-green color, something remarkable since the vast majority of pieces found so far in this mining district were of a more or less intense lilac-purple color, but they are not noted for a greenish color as intense as the one shown by this specimen.
