Blue Fluorite

WE 17-7, 2017

​

Location:

Weisseck, Lungau, Salzburg, Austria

​

Description:

An absolute masterpiece from this locality: intergrown fluorite crystals, with three prominently standing out, measuring up to 6.7 cm in edge length. Water etching has replaced the original parquet-like surface with fine etch pits displaying a delicate, silky luster. The crystals exhibit pronounced stepped edge growth. The transparency of the fluorites is excellent despite their size, and the color is breathtaking!
