Illinois fluorite with a story to tell…
This gorgeous Denton Mine fluorite showcases that unmistakable Southern Illinois color combination collectors dream about—rich grape-purple cubes layered with warm golden honey zoning and incredible translucency. The stacked cubic growth creates a beautifully architectural display, while scattered sulfide inclusions add even more character throughout the specimen.
What makes this piece even more special is the provenance. Included is the original field label documenting collection from the Crystal/Victory Mine area on November 24, 2006, placing this specimen among the classic Harris Creek Sub-District fluorites that continue to captivate collectors decades after mining ceased.
Glassy, colorful, and packed with history—everything that makes Illinois fluorite legendary.
Denton Mine (Crystal/Victory Mine Area), Harris Creek Sub-District, Hardin County, Illinois, USA
