{"product_id":"fluorite-on-calcite-11","title":"FLUORITE on CALCITE","description":"Formerly described as Fluorite var. Yttrofluorite it has since been shown that no detectable yttrium is present within the Fluorite from Qinglong mine, but their style, as attractive purple crystallized coatings on Calcite crystals are modern icons of the mineralogy of China. Found in 2021, this stunning Fluorite-coated Calcite was described as the best piece from this discovery. The large modified Calcite crystal (3.6 cm across) sitting on top of smaller scalenohedral Calcites is pristine and there's no damage to any of the other Calcite crystals all of which are incased in a layer of tiny cubic Fluorite crystals. A striking display piece, it comes with a custom-made acryllic display stand which has a recessed centre to hold the specimen in place and which bears the earlier identification of Yttrofluorite. The Qinglong mine is an epithermal gold-antimony deposit known for some quite unusual secondary antimony and vanadium species along with interesting Fluorites.","brand":"Crystal Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46718571479215,"sku":"CC58862","price":4000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/8516\/2671\/files\/CC58862.png?v=1774875582","url":"https:\/\/crystalclassics.com\/products\/fluorite-on-calcite-11","provider":"Crystal Classics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
