Group of very sharp cubes of Fluorite, one of them very large and clearly dominant. They are translucent, bright and have a yellow color with slightly greenish shades. The sample, whose edges are more transparent than the central area, is very representative of this classic Catalan locality and its crystal size is greater than usual.

JFD89AO1: Fluorite

The Josefa-Veneros vein yielded many fluorites and although they typically exhibit large cubes with color zoning on the edges of the crystals, rough, with dodecahedral faces and predominantly violet colors, there can be notable variations within this pattern, as in this case, in which the color is much bluer than usual, as well as its high transparency that makes it different from the usual Josefa-Veneros standards but no less beautiful for that.
