Fluorite Green Stalactite One of the most widely

One of the most widely recognized and unmistakable minerals

These incredible collector’s pieces – each one of a kind – feature massive semitransparent calcite crystals

Azurite has been sought after since ancient times as a gem and for use in blue pigment

The “Benz” part of the name comes from the tip of some calcite crystals which have a clearly defined three-pointed star of pyrite

The spectacular display of colors these specimens display can be formed by two different geological processes: the oxidation of pyrite causing ultra-thin layers of iron oxide to form on the surface

The name fluorite comes from its use as a flux, or chemical cleaning agent, in iron smelting and other metallurgy. Pure fluorite is clear, but most specimens have vivid color due to various impurities and are often fluorescent. With a
