Mineral Name: Fluorite

Locality: Rogerley Mine, Frosterley, County Durham, United Kingdom.

Dimensions: 0.54" x 0.54" (14mm x 14mm)

Characteristics of this specimen: This is a small, richly colored green cubic cluster from the now-closed Rogerley Mine. Grey zones and twinning structures present--an attractive small specimen.

Green Fluorite from Rogerley Mine is known for its bright green tones, some with grey zones, cubic crystals, and extreme fluorescent reactions. Under UV, these crystals grow a brilliant blue! They are fluorescent enough to begin to turn indigo under sunlight (although they should be kept out of prolonged sun exposure.)

Care Notes: Fluorite is a halide mineral that forms in isometric habits, including cubes, octahedra, dodecahedra. It forms in a rainbow of colors. Fluorite is photo-sensitive, so care should be taken to not leave in prolonged sun.

Healing Keywords: Fluorite is associated with release of negativity and mental focus; green fluorite is connected with growth and inner work.
