Double your traffic. From a personal collection acquired a few years ago when a very high end UK collector decided to sell off a portion of his mineral wealth, this is simply the finest Heights Mine fluorite we have ever had or ever seen in person. This is an impeccable large plate of light green gemmy transparent penetration twinned fluorite crystals covering the entire top of a layer of gray matrix, and the piece is in pristine condition. The fluorite crystals are extremely gemmy, reach 1.0 cm in size, and it comes from the famous locality of the Heights Mine, Weardale, County Durham, England, UK. The specimen measures 13.5 x 9.5 x 4.5 cm in size, weighs 1 pound and 4.2 ounces, and it comes professionally labeled and ready for display with both our label and the original collection label.The crystals on this piece are quite exquisite, and review under magnification is a real joy. The fluorite crystals are vibrantly fluorescent purple under UV light as depicted in the last three photo's, but the fluorescent response in person is much nicer than the photo's depict. This is an excellent specimen from a well regarded historic English fluorite locality that is worth a good review by high level collectors. Please do your own internet research and then come on back and make an offer on this piece before its gone, as this is a true one
