You could hold this little cluster between two fingers, yet it carries three minerals.
Green fluorite, epidote and crystal quartz all grew together on this piece. It is thin and flat, so it lies neatly in a specimen box, a riker mount or a small display case. Collectors of miniatures appreciate how much variety fits into a piece this size, and it is an easy, low commitment way to own a combination specimen. It also makes a small gift to pair with a card for someone who loves green stones.
About Fluorite with Epidote
Fluorite is calcium fluoride, hardness 4 on the Mohs scale, found in purple, green, yellow, blue and colorless forms. Epidote, a pistachio green calcium aluminum iron silicate, often grows with quartz, which is silicon dioxide at hardness 7.
Stone Meaning: Fluorite is traditionally associated with focus and clarity.
