Description I forgot to take a picture of this one and it's one of my faves D: The little pocket is just under an inch wide so it's a small piece, but a great one! It has a large matrix, but It gives me something to hold on to while looking at this piece. I want to avoid touching the crystals on any of specimens so a good sized matrix is always a plus with me. This is also one of a few fluorites that I have that are quite gemmy! The crystals are brightly colored, but you can see right through them.

Gemstreet is this Saturday so hopefully I can find some goodies to bring home! I may also get another new rock in the mail that day too...and Samurai Jack comes back that night...so many good things to come on Saturday

What a intensely saturated color!! Do you know the locality of that piece?

Unfortunately no When I got this, the only thing the ID tag said was "Blue fluorite"...so helpful

I know French blue fluorite is pretty bright (there are several mines there that all produce some really nice blues) and so are some specimens from Rogerly Mine. This is one I need to do more research on. I hope to one day find out where it came from because I certainly wouldn't mind another piece from there

Being blue is not always a bad thing, is it?
