Description: Modified octahedron of fluorite from the historical ~1920s find at Pforte. The crystal has a dark green core and dark purple to blue (appearing almost black) rims as typical for this find. The exact location is lost to history, but it is assumed that these came from the copper-gold prospects in the Pforte mountains. former Scott Williams dealer stock (USA)ex Bill Mc Bride (USA)
