Riemvasmaak Fluorite with Quartz Crystals – Rare Green Octahedrons on Matrix
Size: 60mm x 55mm x 49mm Approximately
Weight: 171gram
This striking specimen showcases the vibrant, glassy-green octahedral crystals that have made Riemvasmaak Fluorite world-renowned among collectors. The sharply defined fluorite octahedrons sit gracefully atop a contrasting bed of white quartz, creating a visually arresting composition. The transparency and deep green colour of the fluorite are hallmarks of only the finest pieces from this locality.
Riemvasmaak, located in the remote Northern Cape of South Africa near the Orange River, is geologically significant for its volcanic and hydrothermal activity. The region’s rugged terrain has produced only a limited number of fluorite specimens with this level of clarity, form, and colour. Mining in the area is sporadic and access is extremely difficult, making high-quality specimens increasingly rare on the market. This piece exemplifies the finest attributes of Riemvasmaak fluorite—an outstanding addition to any advanced mineral collection.
