Fluorite on quartz
description: <p style="text-align: justify;">LOCALITY: De'an Mine, near Wushan, De'an County, Jiujiang Prefecture, Jiangxi Province, China
<br /><br />The De'an Mine is well known for dark purple fluorite specimens. Many of them do not display color unless back lit by a strong light. This is not so with this specimen. It is colorful in normal daylight.
<br /><br />This piece was traded from the collection of Professor Stephen Smale during a visit to Hong Kong in January 2016.</p>
