Fluorite (pink octahedral) on Quartz and Calcite with Diopside, Lollingite etc. (Ref: AX-5-035)
Huanggang Mine, Chifeng Prefecture, Hexigten Banner, Ulanhead League, Inner Mongolia Region, China
78mm x 56mm
minID: D6W-YEY
The most exciting thing from recent finds in inner Mongolia is the rare Pink Fluorites with classic Alpine style that until now were only seen in Western Europe. The associates are similar to Alpine cleft minerals too, these have been quite uncommon so far and unfortunately often very expensive. This is a great example, the largest Fluorite is sharp, to 2.3 CM in size and perched on a contrasting mass of greenish quartz and associates. The Fluorites are in fine condition, a close look at the quartz crystals on the matrix finds some broken tips that are clearly not a distraction on this specimen. This is a tiny fraction of the price for an European example.From: Well-Arranged Molecules
