This flashy piece showcases two different growths of Fluorite on matrix. The first is a golden brown layer of uniformly sized Fluorites. Then a secondary growth of bright purple-zoned Fluorite grew over the first. This unusual combination is noteworthy for the Auglaize quarry and hard to come by. Most of the Ohio Fluorites one sees are dark, or brown. Having bright purple in combination with the brown is a treat. It is in fine condition, without any visible damage.
