TC240AM: Aesthetics and mineralogy come together in this curious specimen of Fluorite that forms a stalactitic growth of cubic crystals, translucent, with an intense violet color, more saturated on the edges, partially covered by Baryte on the back. The stalactite's guide or “faden” could have been a thin elongated Stibnite crystal. The specimen is from the Bob Byers collection, whose label we will send to the buyer.
