FD73H8: Fluorite (spinel twin) with Muscovite and Quartz

Color, crystallization, size… A very uncommon specimen. On the crystals, the forms of octahedron dominate but they are quite more complex than they seem, and we call attention, specially, to the existence of the spinel twin, very rare for Fluorite. The crystals are deep pink and they are on a matrix of crystallized Muscovite in which there also are some Quartz crystals. Different and unusual.

Transparent and very bright Fluorite crystals that have a very intense violet color with very well defined color zoning that is darker on the edges and in the centers of some of the crystals. They are on matrix with coal inclusions and partially coated by Calcite and white thin laminar Baryte crystals. These Fluorites should be considered a rarity because they are from uncommon finds.
