Fluorite from the Wuyi Ore Field | Zhejiang, China

Discover the remarkable fluorite formations of China's historic Wuyi Ore Field in Zhejiang Province, where mining dates to the early 20th century.

Known for its diverse crystal habits, vivid color zoning, and multiple generations of hydrothermal growth, Wuyi produces everything from sharply defined cubes and octahedra to unusual rounded, botryoidal-like aggregates. Dissolution and replacement textures add another dimension to the geological history preserved in these fascinating specimens.
