Among iconic alpine minerals, fluorite occupies a special place: sharp cubic shapes and colorful crystals make for a delightful contrast with other alpine species.
You have here a beautiful example displaying a sharp, colourful 1.4 cm edge fluorite octahedron nested on a floater cluster of glassy and clear smoky quartz.
The fluorite shows an unusually fine crystal quality, with excellent clarity, a very fine 'raspberry' red-pink colour (rarely will you come across as intensely coloured fluorites in the Mont-Blanc!) and good surface state with growth patterns.
The top of the crystal was capped with a platy paperspath calcite crystal, that naturally dissolved in this cleft.
Discovery 2023 by two French cristalliers below the Petites Jorasses peaks in the Leschaux glacier basin, Mont-Blanc.
A superb floater miniature and an alpine classic!
