This soothing lavender ytrium fluorite obelisk has very delicate banding visible on two sides and measures a whopping 10.5" tall.
Yttrium fluorite, a rare fluorite variety, forms through the crystallization of calcium fluoride with the incorporation of yttrium ions during its growth. This mineral typically occurs in hydrothermal veins associated with granite and other igneous rocks, often found in regions such as China, Mexico, and Russia. Yttrium fluorite's distinctive coloration results from the presence of yttrium and other trace elements. While its industrial applications, including in optics and ceramics, have garnered attention, its geological significance remains a subject of ongoing research, contributing to our understanding of mineral formation processes in specific geological environments.
