Fluorite Crystal Cluster, Green Purple Zoned Cubic Fluorite, Okorusu Mine, Namibia, Natural Mineral Specimen

• One-off natural mineral specimen.
• You will receive the exact piece photographed, personally selected for its crystal formation and overall appearance.
• Photographed under controlled lighting to show the colour and internal detail; its appearance may vary under natural light.

This Okorusu fluorite from Namibia has an unusual elongated formation, with a large pale green-grey crystal rising above a series of smaller intergrown cubes. The crystals show smoky blue-grey interiors, soft green zoning and occasional lavender-purple areas, with paler translucent edges that reveal some of the internal growth. Rather than the vivid colours found in some Okorusu specimens, this piece has a more subdued appearance, with its main attraction being the arrangement of the crystals.

Nestled between the larger cubes is a small golden-yellow crystalline formation, which provides a particularly attractive contrast against the cooler fluorite. The specimen changes considerably as it is turned, revealing overlapping cubes, stepped growth and darker purple areas within the lower crystals. At 5.1 cm along its longest dimension, it has a distinctive, slightly sculptural shape despite its modest weight.

Metaphysical Properties

Fluorite is traditionally associated with concentration, clear thinking and emotional balance. Green fluorite is often linked with renewal and personal growth, while purple fluorite is associated with reflection and intuition.

These are traditional metaphysical beliefs rather than scientifically demonstrated effects.
