Fluorite mineral - You can buy these samples

Fluorite is a mineral named by Agricola in 1529. It has a very wide range of colors, zoning is characteristic. Colorless crystals are rare. A typical fluorescent mineral, from the name of which the term "fluorescence" itself comes. Another name for the mineral is "fluorspar", because. it contains fluorine, which, when fluorite is dissolved in sulfuric acid, forms hydrofluoric acid, which leaves indelible matte spots on glassware in which fluorite is dissolved. hydrofluoric acid dissolves glass.

You can see fluorite stone for sale and buy it in the Minerals of Russia online store.
