About this specimen

Marvel at the stunning beauty of this translucent green fluorite, sourced from the renowned Yaogangxian Mine in Chenzhou, Hunan, China. This specimen exemplifies the natural elegance and allure of fluorite crystals, prized by collectors worldwide. Fluorite crystallizes in the isometric cubic system and has a Mohs hardness of 4, making it relatively soft but perfect for display. Its vitreous luster enhances the depth and clarity of the rich green hues visible throughout the crystal.

The Yaogangxian Mine is well-known for producing high-quality minerals, particularly fluorite specimens that exhibit exceptional color saturation and transparency. This piece showcases well-formed crystal faces with smooth terminations, allowing light to penetrate and highlight its translucent nature. The green coloration, characteristic of this locality, is a result of trace elements and is highly sought after among mineral enthusiasts and collectors.

Fluorite’s unique combination of vivid color, crystal form, and origin make this specimen a valuable addition to any mineral collection. While fluorite is moderately fragile, care should be taken to avoid exposure to acids and harsh chemicals, and it should be stored away from direct sunlight to preserve its color. This crystal offers an excellent display quality that reflects the geological richness of its Chinese provenance.
