Sweet day on the digs!
Check out some of the sweet purple Fluorite I got while out digging with Anita. This small Fluorite plate is going to clean up nicely. After cleaning it off more, they look to be very deep purple.

Wow Mike,
I'm very impressed with your Fluorite collection. I had not seen these videos before, glad I happened to look just now. It also looks like all of your Fluorite is home grown in Colorado. To me that makes them even more impressive. Nice job, keep them coming. Something funny..... I literally just sat down to the computer to start putting together my Fluorite Collection video. I am in the process of making a video that shows the many different types and properties of Fluorite. What a coincident. But don't worry, mine will not be as impressive as yours. Very enjoyable, Woody. -------------------- Proud CP Lifetime Member

It also looks like all of your Fluorite is home grown in Colorado. I am in the process of making a video that shows the many different types and properties of Fluorite. Not only is it all from Colorado, it's all from what is now my first claim, staked earlier this year. It's the gift that keeps on giving so far. Can't wait to see your video. Here is an odd property of fluorite: When I was camping I threw some broken pieces of Fluorite in a empty chilli can and heated them on the fire. We were trying to see if we could melt them since the melting temp is very low. They melted some but they glowed a green/blue light and were amazingly bright. -------------------- |
