Fluorite, Minerva No. 1 Mine, Cave-In-Rock, Hardin County, Illinois, USA
Size: 5.3x3.9x2.7 cm
Species: Fluorite
Locality: Minerva No. 1 Mine, Cave-In-Rock, Hardin County, Illinois, USA
Description: A very nice blue Illinois fluorite specimen featuring a sharp and fully intact blue fluorite cube on a bed of smaller fluorite cubes. It is very hard to get a great miniature from this locality today. One unusual feature about this specimen is that the zonation shows an outer zone of more translucent blue with a more saturated vivid blue phantom on the interior. At the very core of the cube is a small purple phantom. Overall fantastic aesthetics.
