12 x 7 x 2.5 cm
$2,400
SOLD
This specimen is from a new find of this highly prized South African Fluorite with a terrific bright "Neon Green" color. I obtained a few of these at the recent Denver Mineral Show where specimens from the new find were first showcased and selling for very high prices. I cherry- picked five from the limited number of specimens in minature to cabinet size range and got a decent price break so that I can offer them at an affordable, although not cheap, price to my customers. This one is the best of the ones I picked.
