Name: Fluor-Richterite on Calcite Matrix
Specimen Size: Large Cabinet-Sized
Dimensions: 127x76x57 mm / 5 x 3 x 2.25 inches
Weight: 731 grams / 1 lb 9 ounces
Origin: Mined in Wilberforce, Ontario, Canada
Nestled in a matrix of ivory colored calcite, are several crystals of Fluor-Richterite. Fluor-Richterite is a rare mineral found only in the Wilberforce area in a skarn formation from the intrusion of magma into limestone with various impurities. The fluor-richterite crystals are a shiny black color and the largest is 3/4" long. They are embedded in white calcite which fluoresces a bright pink color under short wave. Most of the fluor-richterite crystals are not complete. Would be a nice addition to any new or existing collection.
