JUST IN! An American classic from the legendary mines of Southern Illinois…
This beautifully aesthetic purple-zoned Fluorite with Chalcopyrite and Calcite from the historic Denton Mine at Cave-in-Rock captures everything collectors love about Illinois fluorite. Rich cubic zoning glows in deep violet tones, accented by brassy Chalcopyrite and delicate Calcite that add both contrast and dimension. Pieces like this helped define the golden era of American fluorite mining in the mid-1900s, and they continue to stand as icons in fine mineral collections today.
Ex. Harris Precht Jr. Collection Acquired from Weinrich Minerals, Inc. Denton Mine, Cave-in-Rock District, Hardin Co., Illinois Dimensions: 3” x 2 1/2”
A timeless cabinet piece from one of America’s most celebrated fluorite localities.
