location:
Davis-Dearfoff Mine, Hardin Co., Illinois, USA
description:
Attractive rosy purple gemmy and lustrous crystals of fluorite to 0.7 cm in size across the top of a sparkling crystallized quartz matrix. Classic material for this locality, this would have likely been collected in the 1960s. Micro-damage is present but overall quite good and the color contrast makes this very attractive. Originally from the collection of David Straw.
