MK90X5: Fluorite with Dolomite and Pyrite

Group of clear and extraordinarily bright Fluorite crystals. They are morphologically complex, as they have equilibrated growth of the cube, the octahedron and the dodecahedron. The sample, also rich in inclusions, is with small Pyrite and Dolomite crystals. We note that the photograph doesn’t do justice to the exemplary, very much better, beauty of the piece.
