Green Fluorite Tower

This is a polished green fluorite tower. Green fluorite, a variety of the mineral fluorite, is primarily composed of calcium fluoride (CaF2). This mineral forms through hydrothermal processes, often found in veins associated with metallic ores, particularly lead and silver. Green fluorite typically crystallizes in cubic or octahedral forms, exhibiting a vibrant green hue due to trace impurities such as iron, organic matter, or rare earth elements. It occurs in sedimentary rocks, hydrothermal veins, and pegmatites, often in conjunction with minerals like quartz, calcite, and barite.
