These fluorites come from the Fairy Holes pocket in the Lady Annabella mine, located in the UK.

The Fairy Holes pocket is unique in that the normally green gray hue has the ability to color change to bright blue in sunlight. The dark blue line in the first image is a layer of impurities made up of trace amounts of rare earth minerals, which is what gives the fluorite its color changing abilities!

UK fluorites can display a number of different attributes depending on what pockets they come out of. Pockets fairly close to each other can have vastly different characteristics. For instance, the neighboring bull vein is mostly clear to yellow.

All of these are currently available

(First image is a close up image of a piece of fluorite, there are distinct blue and green triangular lines throughout the fluorite. Second image is of a hand holding a bright blue piece of fluorite. Third image is of a fluorite inside a box with blue and green coloration)

Happy Pride month! 🏳️‍🌈

We are proudly LGBTQ+ owned, & we want to celebrate pride this year by showcasing all of our mineral specimens that have natural rainbow iridescence! We will be posting these rainbow minerals all month long, and explaining how the earth formed these incredible pieces.

Happy New Year! 🎉

We're starting off the new year with our very first, "Guess That Mineral!" Post! Can you name the mineral pictured below?

This is a super close up image of a specific mineral. It's very flashy, it reminds me of confetti, and I thought it was perfect for celebrating the new Year 😁

QR Fluorites 😍

I absolutely love the unique patterning on this type of fluorite. It comes from the Dachang mine in Qinglong, China, and can have a range of different colors underneath the purple edging.
