About this specimen

Unleash the stunning energy of vibrant green fluorite crystals sourced from the renowned Yaogangxian Mine in Chenzhou, Hunan, China. This specimen exemplifies the cubic crystal system typical of fluorite, displaying well-formed, sharp-edged crystals with a vitreous luster that enhances its natural brilliance. With a Mohs hardness of 4, fluorite is relatively soft, so careful handling is recommended to avoid scratches or damage. Its chemical formula, CaF2, reflects its composition as calcium fluoride.

The Yaogangxian Mine is highly regarded among mineral collectors for producing a variety of exceptional specimens, particularly prized for their clarity, vibrant coloration, and crystal habit. This piece showcases a rich green coloration, ranging from translucent to semi-transparent areas, which capture light beautifully and reveal intricate internal structures. The distinct cubic formations and vibrant hue make it an attractive addition to any mineral collection or geological display.

Due to its locality and well-preserved crystal faces, this specimen holds notable collector value, especially for those interested in Chinese mineral localities or fluorite varieties. When displaying or storing, keep the specimen away from prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to prevent potential fading, and handle it gently to maintain its pristine condition.
