DENTON MINE ILLINOIS FLUORITE — CHALCOPYRITE SPRINKLED PERFECTION

DENTON MINE ILLINOIS FLUORITE — CHALCOPYRITE SPRINKLED PERFECTION

Now THIS is the kind of Illinois fluorite that keeps you staring.

An incredible Fluorite with Chalcopyrite from the legendary Denton Mine, Hardin County, Illinois — loaded with character from every angle.

Beautiful translucent purple cubes with warm golden tones are absolutely sprinkled with tiny Chalcopyrite crystals, giving the surfaces an incredible metallic sparkle. The zoning, transparency and stacked cubic architecture are classic Illinois, but those Chalcopyrite accents really set this one apart.

And sitting on its custom base, it displays like a piece of natural sculpture.
