It is extremely rare to see specimens of Fluorite, or indeed any mineral specimen, from Casaubon quarry, mid-way between Montreal and Québec in Canada. This large miniature specimen really requires magnification for its full enjoyment, but when you do it is really lovely. Upon it, a Calcite-lined cavity is liberally scattered with pale pastel green octahedral Fluorite crystals. Subtle, but very nice.
