AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Wow !!
Typical big cube of fluorite from this famous alpine mine: its color is violet with some lighter areas and some internal 'ghosts'.
It has 70 mm of size.
The bottom is not complete and the evident fissures are natural and don't cross the piece completely.
A little bit of matrix with some micro transparent quartzes gives a strong contrast.
Many beautiful fluorite specimens have been extracted from this mine and have enriched the collections of many museums and collectors around the world.
It is now a private site, but no new specimens have ever been seen on the regular collectors' market.
