In this post I am going to write about modified fluorite crystals. It is not going to be an static post, so each time I come across a nice modification, or I wonder about which type of modification has one of my specimens,… I will let you know through this post. Basically, I will post modified fluorite crystals from Asturias, but that is a lot because some of the fluorite localities in Asturias produce many lovely and different modifications.

As you probably already know, among thousands of different mineral species, fluorite is one of the most loved ones. I would dare to say it is the mineral that most collectors like! It can present lots of different colours, awesome and different mineral associations, crystallizations, corner modifications and so on!

Let’s start with one thumbnail fluorite specimens I sent recently to a good friend.
