There are number of inclusions in the fluorite that give it that landscape look to the interior.

Hi Am,

It looks to me as from Valzergues. Are you sure is from Le Burc?

Best Regards

Jordi

I have to rely on the information I received from the dealer. It came out of a very large collection the dealer purchased. It is possible that it was incorrectly labeled.

I agree with Jordi, this yellow color is typical from Valzergues. Yellow cubic fluorite does not exist in Le Burg (and not Le Burc).

In the same area you also have Peyrebrune with yellow cubes.
