AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Fluorescent Fluorite – Balochistan, Pakistan

A large Fluorite specimen, characterized by very dense crystallization that covers almost the entire broad surface, forming a compact and intricate aggregate.

The crystals are predominantly cubic in habit, varying in size and with numerous overlapping formations. The stepped surfaces are particularly striking, resulting from the growth of crystals of different sizes and giving the specimen a well-defined geometric structure.

Its natural color is subtle, ranging from light gray to beige, with varying degrees of translucency and softly lustrous surfaces. The close arrangement of the crystals creates an interesting play of reflections and depth.

A notable feature of this specimen is its fluorescence under ultraviolet light, which appears violet and is particularly evident in the central and lower parts of the crystallized surface, as shown in the photographs.

Its broad, relatively thin shape, together with the widespread crystallization and weight of 3.6 kg, makes this specimen well suited for display, allowing both its crystal structure and its response to UV light to be appreciated.

Origin: Balochistan, Pakistan
Weight: 3.6 kg
Dimensions: 26 × 20 × 6 cm

The photographs are an integral part of the description. Colors may vary slightly depending on the device used to view the images.

The intensity and color of the fluorescence may vary depending on the type of UV lamp used.
