Green sugar-fluorite on milky quartz, crystals on matrix, from Dongpo ore field, Suxian District, Chenzhou, Hunan, China.

AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

From the collection of rare and important minerals: sugar-sugared, step-cut crystals of green fluorite on a milky quartz matrix. A distinctive crystallization composed of many small fluorite cubes. Fantastic color contrast between the green and the white of quartz. Rare and high aesthetic value.

Fluorite is known for its fluorescence when exposed to UV rays, from which its name derives. In addition, high-purity fluorite crystals are used in precision optical systems for their low chromatic dispersion and high transmission in the ultraviolet and infrared regions.

This is an ideal specimen for mineralogical collections, display, and for those who appreciate the natural beauty of minerals, also in the field of crystal therapy and lithotherapy, in line with the properties traditionally associated with the mineralogical species.

All minerals are 100% natural and untreated, with rare exceptions always indicated in the description. The photographs are taken with professional lighting to best enhance colors and details; however, slight variations in shade may occur depending on the device or ambient light.

Shipping is carried out by reliable express couriers with fast delivery (in many cases 1-2 working days in Europe), tracked and insured shipping and professional, safe packaging, as confirmed by customer reviews. Deliveries can also take place the day after payment depending on the destination.

It is possible to combine multiple purchases and receive them in a single shipment, even from auctions with different end times, simply by contacting us to arrange the consolidation. For important pieces, direct delivery by appointment to your home or at major European fairs is also available.
