Fluorite (CaF₂) crystallizes in the cubic (isometric) crystal system with a Mohs hardness of 4. This mineral is known for exceptional fluorescence under ultraviolet light, perfect octahedral cleavage, and a wide range of colors including purple, green, blue, yellow, and colorless. Specimens from Fujian Mine are particularly valued among collectors for their quality and character.

This specimen weighs 1.411 oz (40.0 g) and measures approximately 1.5 × 1.2 × 1.1 inches, representing a rare example. Each specimen is carefully hand-selected to ensure excellent crystal development, natural aesthetics, and display-worthy presentation. Photographs represent the actual specimen you will receive.

Whether you are a seasoned mineral collector, a geology enthusiast, or searching for a distinctive natural display piece, this Fluorite specimen offers exceptional quality and visual appeal. It makes an impressive addition to a specimen cabinet, educational display, or curated mineral collection — Fluorite is prized by collectors for its vivid color zoning and phantom growth patterns, and industrially important as a flux in steelmaking and in the production of hydrofluoric acid.
