MINERVA COLOR ZONING GONE WILD

MINERVA COLOR ZONING GONE WILD.

THIS is why classic Illinois Fluorite will always hit different.

An absolutely ridiculous Fluorite from the legendary Minerva No. 1 Mine in Cave-in-Rock, Illinois — loaded with layer after layer of incredible natural color zoning.

Electric violet and purple edges frame a glowing golden-honey center, with flashes of blue and warm orange appearing as the light moves through the crystal.

And the GLASSINESS… Sharp cubic growth, beautiful transparency, and internal zoning that looks like it was painted inside the crystal.

Turn it. Backlight it. Change the angle.

A completely different color show every time.

Classic Illinois material with the kind of color, contrast, and presence that makes you stop and stare.

EARTH’S ART. MILLIONS OF YEARS IN THE MAKING.

And yes…

AMAZEBALLS.
