Description from the seller
Great fluorite specimen from Balochistan, Pakistan. The main surface is covered by dense crystallization of small light-gray cubic crystals, evenly distributed over much of the specimen. The crystals show a slight transparency along the edges and produce numerous reflections when illuminated.
One of the most interesting elements of the specimen is a thin raised ridge that runs across the front. This natural structure is fully crystallized and creates a pleasant depth effect, almost like a second level emerging from the main surface. Along this ridge, cubic crystals appear more developed than the rest of the specimen, well integrated into the overall growth.
The reverse side presents a more natural and rugged appearance, but it is also completely covered with fluorite crystals. This crystallization continues on both faces, allowing the viewer to appreciate the specimen from different angles and highlighting the richness of the mineral growth.
This is a large specimen, with very extensive crystallization and an unusual appearance that makes it particularly decorative.
