Aggregate of very sharp octahedral Fluorite crystals, a very rare shape for Panasqueira. They are almost colorless, transparent, and have deep violet cubic phantoms. They are on a crystalline Quartz matrix partially coated by Chlorite, with small Muscovite aggregates and Pyrite crystals. The upper levels of Panasqueira are currently offering surprising and pleasant novelties, with samples that are very different from what has been known from this mine.
