RM650This Emilio specimen is the epitome of when chaos co-exists with order. On its front face, numerous colourless cubic fluorite crystals grow without restraint on a bed of sparkly, silvery quartz. On its side, the neat, smooth surface characteristic of an Emilio specimen emerges, complete with the coveted blue and purple zonings and chalcopyrite inclusions classic to this locality. Truly the best of both worlds.
Locality: Emilio Mine, Asturias, Spain

RM1,148Despite most Llamas Quarry finds being on the smaller side, usually with just one or two fluorite crystals, this specimen is generously and fully covered with the characteristic bevelled edged, tabular crystals Llamas Quarry is known for. Despite its quantity, the quality holds fast— most of the crystals are clear, glassy and lustrous, some with beautiful zonings. Some of the crystals even grow together to form a shape resembling a heart. Under different lighting, the specimen appears to be soft plum pink to violet purple colours.
Locality: Llamas Quarry, Duyos, Spain

Original price was: RM2,585.RM2,015Current price is: RM2,015.A peculiar, yet aesthetic Emilio example, with a full square front face, framed neatly by thick zonings of sharp blue and purple. Besides the intricate etchings on most of its faces, this specimen also exhibits the uncommon and unusual corner modifications that gives the crystal an otherwise “puffier”, softer and rounder aesthetic.

RM3,170The water-clear clarity of the best Emilio fluorites can be hard to capture on camera, simply because the crystals are so transparent, one can see through it to see the matrix underneath or other crystals that grew alongside.
The highlight of this specimen is undoubtedly the completely perfect crystal that sits front and centre. The beautifully formed, bevelled-edged, jewel-like fluorite crystal is completely damage-free, smooth, gemmy and clear on all sides, so clear that you can see the micro chalcopyrite crystals within.

One of the juiciest and craziest Berbes Fluorite we’ve seen! The distinctive, sharp magenta purple and blue zonings are phenomenal- especially since blue zonings are not commonly seen in fluorites from Berbes. Acquiring a sizeable Berbes with minimal damage is no easy feat, let alone one with such amazing zonings and saturated colours.

A classic example from the Emilio Mine, this colourless specimen is completely glassy, with blue zonings and chalcopyrite inclusions throughout. The translucent appearance and glassy lustre is further enhanced by its beautiful etchings and “digital growths”-like formation.

An excellent example of how the best Berbes can be. Soft pink hues, accentuated by sharper pink and gentle blue zonings— both colours rarely found in specimens from this locality. With glassy faces that are so clear, one can easily see the gorgeous, snow-white Barite blades underneath the bevelled crystals.

A gorgeous specimen from the Llamas Quarry, with the biggest crystal being a water-clear, tabular fluorite with a slightly bluish-violet tinge. There are also several other smaller crystals, some cubic, but with the same exceptional clarity, growing aesthetically alongside the focal one.

RM1,550
One of those few fluorite specimens from the Emilio Mine with hydrocarbon inclusions (the round, black “ink droplets”)- a mineral combo beloved by fluorite collectors, thanks to the distinctive “black & white” aesthetic between the glassy, colourless fluorite and black bitumen.
