An exceptional, highly aesthetic thumbnail specimen featuring a translucent lavender-purple Fluorite crystal perched directly atop a bed of crisp, white rhombohedral Dolomite crystals on matrix from the obscure Kingsport Quarry, Sullivan County, Tennessee.
The Kingsport Quarry is a classic yet rarely offered Tennessee mineral locality. Unlike common Illinois or Kentucky fluorites, specimens from this Sullivan County locality are seldom seen on the open market, making them highly sought after by American locality specialists.
This piece displays striking visual contrast: the saturated purple fluorite crystal catches ambient light with a glassy luster, sitting high atop a stark, snow-white dolomite matrix.
An essential piece for Tennessee locality specialists, fluorite suite collectors, or systematic thumbnail display cabinets seeking obscure American quarry representation. You will receive the exact specimen pictured.
