About this specimen
A single grape-purple dome, textured like the skin of a bayberry, sits on a wafer of straw-pale rock barely thicker than a coin. Close light resolves the dome into thousands of minute crystal tips packed shoulder to shoulder, matte and sugary rather than glassy, and the colour deepens towards violet in the shadowed hollows between the lobes.
Botryoidal fluorite is an oddity worth understanding. Instead of building the cubes the species is famous for, the crystals nucleated in enormous numbers across a curved surface and grew outward together, leaving a rounded shell of microcrystals whose surface is all tips and no faces. Fluorite (CaF2) is Mohs 4, and a drusy skin like this traps dust readily — blow it clear rather than brushing, which only presses grit down between the lobes.
A thumbnail-scale piece at 3.3 × 1.0 × 2.3 cm and 20 g, putty-mounted on the clear acrylic cube shown. All photographs are of this one specimen.
