Rainbow Fluorite Tumble
Ethically sourced from China. Please note not all tumbles will be Rainbow Fluorite. Some will be just Green or Purple Fluorite too! You get one intuitively picked tumble! 📖Crystal properties📖: Fluorite is a form of calcium fluoride. It belongs to the family of halide minerals and is part of the cubic crystal system. Fluorite is found as a common gangue mineral in hydrothermal veins, especially those containing lead and zinc minerals. It is also found in some greisens, granites, pegmatites and high-temperature veins, and as a component of some marbles and other metamorphic rocks. Named in 1797 by Carlo Antonio Galeani Napione from the Latin, fluere = "to flow" (for its use as a flux). The term fluorescence is derived from fluorite, which will often markedly exhibit this effect. The element fluorine also derives its name from fluorite, a major source of the element. It rates a 4 on the Mohs hardness scale. It can be most commonly found in China, Peru, Brazil, the UK, USA, and Canada. .🚛W
