Fluorite
Fluorite is a mineral known for its wide colour variation and glassy luster. It can be purple, green, blue, yellow, colourless or even multicoloured. Fluorite often forms in hydrothermal veins, usually together with other minerals such as quartz, calcite and barite.
Major deposits include China, Mexico, South Africa and Spain. Its chemical formula is CaFâ‚‚, and the mineral belongs to the halides. Fluorite has a hardness of 4 on the Mohs scale.
Well-known varieties are rainbow fluorite (multi-coloured layered), blue fluorite and green fluorite, each with its own colour scheme and brightness.
