This is the last mineral that is published on this website
Color burst in blue at its finest! Crystals of a monumental Fluorite with the best possible blue for the La Viesca mine.
This is a very special piece for several reasons, both for me and for Jordi. It is the last specimen that will be for sale on the Fabre Minerals website and it is an honor to be able to describe it, although unlike all the others published so far, its description cannot be merely systematic. I was lucky enough to accompany Jordi on a trip through Asturias in which he was able to obtain this specimen, a large Asturian Fluorite, one of our greatest weaknesses and, I believe, a weakness of many collectors.
During the time that I have been collaborating with Jordi, this page has been offering minerals with a restrained price, always seeking a balance to make all types of specimens more accessible and thus contribute to their dissemination. A farewell like this certainly deserves a splendid mineral to end it.
Thank you all for this beautiful trip, it's been incredible!
