This crystallised mass of transparent to translucent sea-green Fluorite forms a charming small cabinet specimen and is a delightful representative example from the Weißeck Area in Murwinkel in the state of Salzburg, Austria. Weißeck mountain forms the focus from around which Fluorite is found on its slopes and in boulders. The area is quite extensive, covering an elliptical area of some 3.5 x 1.5 km along axes. This locality has produced virtually every colour of Fluorite imaginable, this piece being an aesthetic aquamarine turquoise green with tints of sky blue and bluish emerald green. Parts of this mass of crystals become gemmy across and within the randomly aligned prism faces.
