Morocco Fluorite Update – February 2016
Posted by: Raymond McDougall on 02.22.2016 | Filed under: Latest, Recent Mineral Updates

I’ve posted a new Morocco Fluorite Update (click here) with super yellow fluorite crystals from a small recent find at the El Hammam Mine. These are great yellow fluorite specimens!
The hue of these fluorites varies, depending on the light source (common phenomenon for fluorite). They appear a warmer honey-yellow under halogen, a slightly brighter yellow in daylight and even a bit bolder under cool-temperature LED lighting. This effect is different with each specimen, some show it more and some less. The depth of the yellow colour also varies from one specimen to the next thanks to the fine, faint purple phantoms in many of the crystals.
