OKH-600 Fluorite Taewha, South Korea. Paul and Dawne Dunning Collection. This forms a cluster that measures 3.8 x 3.6 x 2.3 cm. The cubes are large, up to 2 cm on edge, but show dings on several corners. The luster is flat, etched looking, so this specimen serves best as a reference piece. It is certainly a very unusual location to find fluorite. $25
