Malachite on Fluorite Cave-in-Rock, Cave-in-Rock Sub-District, Illinois - Kentucky Fluorspar District, Hardin Co., Illinois 2.57cm x 1.85cm x .72cm

Description/Interesting Notes: A rare example of malachite on fluorite from this famous locality!!! This specimen consists of a complex single crystal of fluorite in association with lively green malachite!!! The fluorite crystal is actually a complete floater with no point of attachment whatsoever!!! The fluorite crystal has rich purple color and marked clarity!!! There are several altered chalcopyrite crystals in association that are no doubt the source of the malachite!!! The malachite is present as a lively green crust with small patches of tiny fibrous crystals in areas!!! This specimen came from a small single find of material that exhibited a significant amount of malachite in association - a mineral that is otherwise rare at this locality!!! This specimen is in fantastic condition all around and displays quite handsomely!!! Quite colorful and showy in person!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!!
