Purple Ojuela Fluorite Lavender Cubes Calcite UV Pink Fluorescence D Crystal Cluster Mineral Specimen Rocks and Minerals Ojuela Mine Mexico

This specimen is a beautiful example of crystal structure and fluorescence! This is a unique cluster of distinctive pale lavender purple fluorite cubes, on a matrix of limonite. The cluster is composed of layers of richly shaded minerals and matrix rock, with a raw and organic texture that is unshaped and unpolished. (There are a few broken terminations and raw areas, but in my opinion they do not lessen the beauty of the cluster as a whole.) The purple fluorite in this specimen also fluoresces brightly under UV—it is a pretty pink to light red shade of fluorescence that is a signature of Ojuela fluorite! This small specimen is a striking and unique display piece, and would offer a lot of beauty to any specimen collection. Ojuela mine is considered one of, if not the most, important source for minerals in Mexico! It is known for world class examples of paradamite, austinite, legrandite, wulfenite, aurichalcite, mimetite, rosasite, and fluorite. Ojuela mine has more than 350 years of
