Added to this are the decorative white and yellow quartz formations, which make the piece a true collector's highlight. With a weight of 241 g, the specimen has a substantial, pleasant size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the violet color develop in fluorite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePure fluorite is colorless and transparent. The violet coloring develops through trace impurities and lattice defects in the crystal that are incorporated during mineral formation. The exact color intensity depends on the chemical composition and geological formation conditions of the respective piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes purple fluorite glow under UV light?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany fluorites show a distinct fluorescence under UV radiation – meaning they emit visible light when excited by UV radiation. The phenomenon of fluorescence was even named after fluorite. How intensely a specific piece fluoresces can vary depending on composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is this fluorite specimen suitable for as a gift?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis specimen is an ideal gift for mineral collectors, crystal enthusiasts, people interested in mindfulness and crystal healing, as well as for anyone looking for an extraordinary, natural eye-catcher for their home.
