Several prominent cubes dominate the specimen, creating a bold geometric appearance that immediately captures attention. The crystals exhibit excellent transparency around the edges while deeper sections appear darker, producing remarkable depth and contrast. Small remnants of the original matrix and natural mineral coatings accent the crystal cluster, adding authenticity and character to this classic Okorusu Fluorite specimen.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Details You Need\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e✓ \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMineral Species:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Fluorite\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e✓ \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAssociated Minerals:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Minor Quartz\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e✓ \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLocality:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Okorusu Mine, Otjiwarongo District, Otjozondjupa Region, Namibia\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e✓ \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSpecimen Type:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Small Cabinet\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e✓ \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCrystal System:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Cubic\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e✓ \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eColour:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Blue-Green, Teal, Purple \u0026amp; Black\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e✓ \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLustre:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Vitreous\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e✓ \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTransparency:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Transparent to Translucent\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e✓ \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSize:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Approximately 61 mm × 40 mm × 53 mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e✓ \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWeight:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 170 g\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFluorite forms when mineral-rich hydrothermal fluids circulate through fractures and cavities within host rocks. As these fluids cool, dissolved calcium and fluorine crystallise into the distinctive cubic crystals that make Fluorite one of the most recognisable and sought-after minerals in the world. Trace elements and variations in growth conditions can produce a wide range of colours, with the deep blue-green tones seen in this specimen being particularly desirable among collectors. The sharp crystal faces and strong cubic development make this an excellent example of Fluorite's classic crystal habit.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Okorusu Mine is one of Africa's most famous Fluorite localities and has produced some of the finest Fluorite specimens ever discovered in Namibia. Formed within a complex carbonatite-related geological system, the mine became renowned for yielding colourful cubic Fluorite crystals displaying remarkable clarity, colour zoning, and aesthetic crystal groupings. Today, Okorusu specimens remain highly prized by collectors worldwide, particularly as material from the locality becomes increasingly difficult to obtain.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAdd a classic Okorusu Fluorite to your collection and own a specimen from one of the world's most respected Fluorite-producing localities, celebrated for its exceptional crystal quality and unforgettable colours.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ForeverGems_SA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46242409283780,"sku":"S650","price":450.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0273\/1599\/4699\/files\/S650FluoriteOkoruso_1.webp?v=1781266484","url":"https:\/\/www.forevergems.co.za\/products\/purple-blue-green-fluorite-with-quartz-from-okorusu-mine-namibia-copy","provider":"ForeverGems_SA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
