Stepped Purple Fluorite from Illinois (Ref: FB18-PRSTEPFL)
Denton Mine, Hardin Co., Illinois, USA
140mm x 110mm x 85mm
$1800
This large purple fluorite is covered with stepped faces. The specimen is almost a floater because it is crystallized almost completely around it. At appears that once in its life it broke off from the host rock, and the contact areas continued to grow. The condition is very good for a specimen this large. There are a few tiny nicks, but with all the stepped detail going on it doesn't really show, especially when backlit. In some of the crevices is a yellow, granular material that's probably some sort of barite. Data last checked on 14th Sep 2021 - specimen may no longer be available
