Fluorite and Calcite

WE 9–6, 2009

​

Location:

Ice Cleft, Weisseck, Lungau, Salzburg, Austria

​

Description:

One of the few green fluorites showing both excellent surface quality and excellent luster. The surfaces show a multiple fine square texture. The edge growth is stepped multiple and very lively due to an intense square texture. The transparency is excellent; a few individually-grown calcites further enrich the piece. This piece was found in September 2009 on the ground about two and a half meters deep from the entrance area.
