These specimens were one of the few "new sensations" at the Tucson Show of 2005, especially as new finds were so scarce that year in general. We EXPECTED to see more at Denver 2005 but there were none to be had...they have NOT FOUND ANOTHER LARGE POCKET SINCE! This is a very large crystal for the find , and exceptionally rich with purple-blue, sharp fluorite crystals included inside. It is almost doubly-terminated, with a slight bit missing a tthe bottom and the smallest of dings atop (you have to really look to see it...no visual impact). This piece has the most inclusions per unit area of any I have had, I would say, and thus the best overall impact and color appeal. The fluorites grew on the face of the quartz crystals at some point during their development in the pocket, and were later engulfed as the quartz continued its growth. These are certainly the most interesting fluorite inclusions we have seen from any recent find, and this particular piece is a stellar example.
