Fluorite
« on: June 11, 2019, 11:52:56 AM »

These were made for someone in exchange for some of the raw material.  Comes from the Nevada border with Utah.  We helped pull out quite a bit of Fluorite out of a 15 to 20 foot hole that was created long ago as a test hole for miners looking for gold.  It was a fun trip and the purple color of the rock is incredible.  Sphere range in sizes from 3 1/2 to 4 inches.
