Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Fluorite, Galena
Locality: Huanzala Mine, Huallanca District, Dos de Mayo Province, Huánuco Department, Peru (Locality at mindat.org)
Size: small cabinet, 7.4 x 6.1 x 4.2 cm
Fluorite with Galena
This specimen is from a small new find in Peru, from mid-January of 2010. It produced a number of fluorites associated with sharp, accenting galena crystals. However, few of the fluorites were glassy , most having the matte faces typical of this mine. This piece is a little unusual in that it is a modified octohedron (5 cm long), with glassy side bevels and complicated octohedral faces with minute and intricate surface modifications. It is a complete crystal, even on its backside which sticks off the galena matrix plate (though it is complete around back in a technical sense, it is not a sharp termination in back, I should clarify). The color is a rich pink hue, with a slight green core seen in some lighting. For the size range, one of the best I know of from the find because of its intricate structure and nice balanced association.
