This shimmering cluster of of icy light green fluorite cubes glows light blue under the UV light. The piece also has patchy clusters of micro quartz as well as galena inclusions. The specimen comes from the Canada Fluorspar Inc. Mine, which was, until recently, mining a fluorite vein in a cluster of fluorite veins that have been mined on and off for decades. The company identified a significant fluorite bearing structure hosted in the meta-sediments which has been intruded by rhyolite sills and dykes. The Mine is currently closed and it may open again, sometime in the future.
