Fluorite - New Mexico
An incredible fluorite specimen from the newly discovered Ice Cream Igloo pocket at The Blanchard mine in New Mexico. The Blanchard has long been known to produce world renown blue cubic fluorite so when the boys from twoguysonehole broke into a 30 foot long pocket of this unprecedented material, they knew they had hit something special. A pocket of this size & caliber is a once in a lifetime discovery. The fluorite itself is a gorgeous sea-foam green with a secondary layer of vibrant purple fluorite covered in cubic-steps. The material is both gemmy & lustrous lending to its beautiful aesthetic. Any collector of fluorite or North American minerals in general would be doing themselves a disservice by not adding one of these specimens to their collection.
