This striking fluorite specimen presents two distinct personalities, revealed through both natural and ultraviolet light. Under daylight, the piece displays golden translucent fluorite crystals nestled among granular calcite and scattered metallic pyrite, creating a rugged, mineralogically rich surface with excellent texture and depth. The natural coloration is bright and earthy, allowing the crystal structure and associations to take center stage.
When exposed to ultraviolet light, the specimen transforms dramatically. The fluorite fluoresces a vivid electric yellow, illuminating crystal faces and seams throughout the piece while sharply contrasting against the dark scattering of pyrite. This strong and otherworldly UV response adds an interactive, museum-worthy dimension, making the specimen equally compelling for both standard display and ultraviolet viewing.
6.5” x 4” x 3.25”
1894g
Highlights
Golden yellow fluorite with sharp crystal form
Associated metallic pyrite and pale dolomite
Warm, richly textured appearance in natural light
High Luster
Strong cabinet and fluorescent-collection appeal
Metaphysical Properties
Yellow fluorite is often associated with clarity, confidence, and focused energy, particularly around decision-making and creativity. Pyrite is traditionally linked to grounding and abundance, while dolomite is associated with balance and emotional steadiness—making this a specimen valued for both its visual impact and symbolic resonance.
Mineralogy
Primary Mineral: Fluorite (yellow variety)
Associated Minerals: Pyrite, Dolomite
Crystal System: Isometric (Fluorite)
Luster: Vitreous (fluorite), metallic (pyrite), matte to pearly (dolomite)
UV Reactivity: Yes — fluorescent response under ultraviolet light
