My fluorite specimen number has been increased and become the largest number of my collection. I like the effects of fluorites, such as colours (change), fluorescenc and phantoms. Those are thier own signature.

Sometimes, I left specimen alone until dust coating at a certain point. and then I had to clean that up. but that really have fun, especially finding good sights.

almost 1year, I have not been here.
Milky white creedite specimens seem like more rare than purple ones. It looks like a wedding flower bouquet.

Thank you, Herman.
yes, I love phantom effect so much, not only fluorite, but also other minerals like calcite, Baryte, quartz, and garnet.
your example is good. I remember that the phantom effect is so called "alien eye", right?
I have the same loaction fluorite specimen like yours, but it is a thumbnail size.

less than 1.25" X 1.25" X 1.25"
sorry for that I cannot prove the detail of dimensions. |
