Fluorite - Boltry quarry, Seilles, Wallonia, Belgium
Purple to colorless fluorite, with a shape very different from...
Fluorite of a very intense mauve, with a shape very far from the classical cube that one generally looks for in a fluorite. It is in fact a floating piece, whose surfaces show very beautiful dissolution figures, naturally sculpted by the circulation of hydrothermal fluids. One face is a bit cleaved. This sample is atypical because of its provenance (fluorite is not common in Belgium) and because of the uniqueness of this discovery, which took place in a single area of the quarry, in the 1960s/1970s. Although rare, Seilles fluorite is known for its great chromatic range and its quality, revealed especially when cut. See Le Règne Minéral #129.
