NE13AM5: Groups of very sharp octahedral Fluorite crystals on matrix. Transparent, with good luster and an intense green color but with a slightly different tone from the usual classic grass-green.
Berta Quarry, Can Domènech Hill, Roques Blanques Mountains, Sant Cugat del Vallès-El Papiol, Comarca Vallès Occidental / Baix Llobregat, Barcelona, Catalonia / Catalunya  Spain

Specimen size: 7.2 × 4.7 × 3.9 cm = 2.83” × 1.85” × 1.54”

Main crystal size: 1 × 0.7 cm = 0.39” × 0.28”

EG36AM5: Parallel growth of two very sharp Ferberite crystals on matrix with Arsenopyrite and Quartz crystals and coatings of Muscovite aggregates. Large in size, the piece is more aesthetic than usual due to the contrast of the Ferberite crystals with the Muscovite matrix.
Minas da Panasqueira, levels 0-1, Aldeia de São Francisco de Assis, Covilhã, Castelo Branco, Cova da Beira, Centro  Portugal (05/2019)

EF51AM5: Group of Fluorite crystals with very well defined faces and edges, translucent and purple in color with geometric color zoning, more intense on the edges. The brown coatings of Pyromorphite formed by a multitude of crystals that cover a good part of the Fluorite crystals are noteworthy. This specimen, from a classic French mine, comes from the George Bouvet collection (Grenoble)
