Fluorite included in Quartz

Miandrivazo, Fianarantsoa Province, Madagascar

2.77" x 1.03" x .87"

7.04cm x 2.61cm x 2.21cm


Description/Interesting Notes:

A fantastic example of this extraordinary combination of fluorite included in quartz!!! These specimens were part of a small find a few years back and there is very little material to be had!!! Out of all of the material there were very few good "specimens" found, as most were broken up chunks!!! This magnificent specimen consists of a sharp, complex group of doubly terminated quartz crystals that host numerous, intensely colored, purple fluorite crystals included within!!! This locality produced only a very small number of crystals with significant enough clarity and lustrous enough faces to be able to appreciate the fluorite crystals within!!! As far as the locality is concerned, this specimen has fantastic clarity, luster, sharpness of form, and quality compared to the majority of material found there!!! The fluorite crystals are rather large for this occurence as well!!! What is most exciting about this specimen is that the fluorite crystals are large and brightly colored and the quartz is clear and lustrous - allowing one to easily see that these fluorite crystals are not octahedrons but actually TETRAHEXAHEDRONS!!! This is a very rare habit indeed and this specimen allows one to see it in magnificent illustration as a free-floating included fluorite crystal in quartz!!! The pics don't even come close!!! This material has all but disappeared since its initial, small one-time find!!! Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!! STAY TUNED!!! MORE AUCTIONS WILL BE ADDED SATURDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 5-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY JULY 24th!!!
