Druse of very sharp Fluorite crystals of good size, between transparent and translucent, soft green in color with yellowish tones and reflections, lustrous, with coatings of small white Calcite crystals. This specimen, of exceptional quality for the locality, also has a curiosity: inclusions of small very intense green 'spots'. It has been said that these spectacular green spots could be due to traces of ions, but in this case color centers seem to be a more consistent explanation, considering the characteristics of the mine.
