Fluorite
I found this specimen is a small rock shop in Rolla, Missouri. We stopped there on our recent trip to California. The store is closing and the owner pulled this out of his old basement stock. It is from The Navidad Mine, Rodeo Municipality, Durango Mexico. (yes this is the same location that many wonderful credits have come from).The fluorites are pale lavender/purple translucent octahedral crystals. They sit and display nicely across the matrix. The largest crystal is approximately 2.0 x 1.8 cm.
