Fluorite

The mine in Tongling, Anhui, China is reportedly a mine where teams are not well equipped for mining specimens, but rather raw materials for industrial use which make these fluorites an interesting find! This variation is characterized by its yellow cubes and purple inner zoning.

This piece features fluorite cubes seated upon a bed of quartz and a tiny bit of pyrite at the base. The piece also has a few spots of pink in the quartz!
