Fluorite is a very soft mineral and therefore unsuitable for use in jewelry. Because of its softness and ready cleavage, fluorite is very difficult to facet. The fluorite from the William Wise Mine is unusually free of inclusions and displays an exceptionally beautiful light green color. The beauty of Wise Mine fluorite justifies the extra effort required to facet this gem material. Shown above is a very bright, clean and expertly crafted gemstone suitable for any gemstone collection. If you are a collector of fluorescent gemstones, this specimen has a blue fluorescence under long wave ultraviolet light.
