Fluorite included in Quartz

Miandrivazo, Fianarantsoa Province, Madagascar

1.56" x .47" x .36"

3.95cm x 1.2cm x .92cm


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, single quartz crystal with numerous, intensely colored, purple fluorite crystals included within and with exceptional clarity, luster, sharpness of form, and quality for this locale!!! 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!!! What is most exciting about this specimen is that the fluorite crystals are brightly colored and the quartz is clear and lustrous enough to allow one to see that these fluorite crystals are not octahedrons but actually TETRAHEXAHEDRONS!!! This is a very rare habit indeed - one of the rarest fluorite crystal habits!!! 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 MONDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 3-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY OCTOBER 30th!!!
