Fluorite on Quartz

A fabulous example from the William Wise with a perfect deeply colored nearly gem 1.5cm octahedron interpenetrated at the back by a smaller, also perfect octahedron. This is a near floater as I only find a white crust on the back of the quartz cluster that may have been an attachment point. The quartz are all in great shape and an opaque milky color.

Locality: William Wise Mine, Chesire County New Hampshire USA

Composition: Calcium Fluoride
