Features green core with deep, inky purple zoning along the crystal edges. The colour contrast creates exceptional depth, giving the crystals a rich, almost glowing appearance. Set in a combined matrix of Feldspar, Calcite, Mica and Pyrite, the combination of minerals adds texture and visual interest, making each piece unique in both structure and character.
While Brazil is globally recognised for its abundance of Quartz and pegmatite minerals, Fluorite from this region is scarce.
Material from Padre Paraíso is particularly distinctive for its colour zoning and association with multiple minerals on matrix. The locality name itself translates to “Priest’s Paradise,”.
Specimens from this area are not commonly encountered on the market, making them a very rare and unusual addition to any collection.
Fluorite from Padre Paraíso stands out due to both its rarity and distinctive colouration. In a country not typically known for Fluorite, pieces like these are especially sought after by collectors looking for something different. The combination of vivid zoning, multi-mineral associations, and limited availability makes this a unique and highly collectible specimen.
