About this specimen
Dimensions: 6.1 × 5.0 × 4.4 cm (2.40 × 1.97 × 1.73 in); longest edge 61 mm (2.40 in).
The cubes on this Inner Mongolia specimen are purple pressed so far past velvet that they read as black until light gets behind them, at which point the edges glow violet and the interiors give up step after step of squared-off phantom growth. Banked around and beneath them is a crust of pale olive-yellow spheres, matte and botryoidal, which throws the dark fluorite forward.
Phantoms form when growth pauses long enough for a film of another mineral, or simply a change in the fluid, to settle on the crystal faces before growth resumes; the outline of the smaller, earlier cube stays sealed inside the larger one. The near-black saturation comes from colour centres in the CaF2 lattice. Fluorite is Mohs 4 with perfect octahedral cleavage.
Size 6.1 × 5.0 × 4.4 cm, weight 135 g. Photographed on the clear acrylic block it comes mounted on, this is the specimen that ships.

Very attractive specimen, very pleased, thank you
My quartz stone is super clear without any internal fractures which is rare. It's practically flawless. It arrived in just a few days and came in a box not a flimsy bag. It was well packaged and protected and arrived in perfect condition.

I was surprised with how well this was packaged. It is very much appreciated that this beautiful piece was so protected on it's journey.
Adorable little golden barite specimen! Fast shipping, packed with great care, and even came with a nice acrylic display base. I wouldn't hesitate to buy from this seller again. Thank you so much!
item arrived safely! packaged is great. The only thing i was concern of was the shipping. i had to ask what's going on with the shipment since it wasnt updated for about almost a week. Luckily the seller said it will be updated within a week. not really sure why so that really worried me. Other than that at least I got my item! but i do wish they tell you first that the item is in maybe a different warehouse or something so as a buyer I wouldn't get nervous where it went. Overall Excellent Service with Maggie! she helped me answer my questions
