JFD157AO8: The crystallography of Berbes fluorites is not as rich as that of other neighboring mines such as San Lino, Jaimina, or Emilio, but sometimes even in Berbes there are unusual morphologies, very similar to those other mines, as can be seen in the enlarged photo of this beautiful specimen. Small, but interesting.
