Description
This is an octahedron-shaped sample of violet fluorite, produced by cleaving the then massive fluorite. Elle est principalement rencontrée sous cette forme et rarement cristallisée (voir pas du tout).
Attractive, brighter backlight zoning is also visible.
In the 1960s and 1970s, numerous fluorite samples were found in the Boltry quarry in Seilles, Belgium, near Andenne.
