Summary

Description
English: Fluorite
Locality: Okorusu Mine (Okarusu Mine), Otjiwarongo District, Otjozondjupa Region, Namibia (Locality at mindat.org)
Size: large cabinet, 18.0 x 16.2 x 3.6 cm
Fluorite
This really colorful, large, plate of intergrown fluorite features crystals exhibiting stepped growth, with super gemminess and good luster. The crystals generally have emerald green cores and purple edges. Crystals reach 5 cm (2 inches) across and the whole specimen is almost pristine, with only a few cleaves at the edges/periphery. The specimen also appears to be totally crystallized on the back side with microcrystallized faces, almost curving in upon themselves, forming a curvy backside. The entire plate is translucent to transparent and the photos here show only moderate, not strong, backlighting. In stronger backlihgting, it glows and all details of the complex steppe growth pop out at you!
