Fluorite with Quartz, Chalcopyrite, Sphalerite
specimen number:
4621018
location:
Animon Mine, Huaron, Pasco, Peru
description:
I think an unusual locality example for the species, a colorless translucent octahedral crystal of fluorite measuring 2.0 cm in size on a bed of crystallized quartz with large golden chalcopyrite crystals. I have sold thousands of these sulfide and quartz combinations from this locality over the years, I hardly remember any with good crystals of fluorite. Minor sphalerite present as well.
Size: 8.0 x 5.0 x 3.5 cm (small-cabinet)
