Wonderful fluorite specimens Mike. Your La Paz County specimen is most likely from the Heson Mine. It was known for producing both cubic and octahedral fluorites.

The information on the locality was recently published in the May/June 2017 edition of Rocks and Minerals,

Thanks for the information Jamison.

Added the Heson Mine in your photo https://www.mineral-forum.com/message-board/download.php?id=81568

BTW, someone here knows the Johnson Fluorite Mine on Albuquerque? ( https://www.mineral-forum.com/message-board/download.php?id=81618 )
I assume that is "Manzano Mts" not "Monzano Mts" but I can't find any official reference of this mine in Manzano Mts neither in Albuquerque...

Thanks in advance
