Fluorite with Calcite  

TBR50CD5: Group of cubic Fluorite crystals with light blue polycrystalline faces, very translucent and lustrous, with the classic edges modified by lilac-colored rough rhombohedral faces so characteristic of Josefa-Veneros, and with scalenohedral crystals of Calcite on the back of the piece.
About fifty years have passed since this piece was found and we still continue to marvel at Josefa-Veneros' quality specimens, like this one, which comes from Julio Martín's collection.
