A 6cm Schorl crystal on smokey quartz with Albite hosting a very unusual Fluorite crystal. The purple Fluorite is 1.1 cm across and apears to be a modified octahedral crystal (there are a few small octahedons on other areas of the specimen). The Fluorite forms almost a perfect, complete sphere shape. I am told this formation is known as \"Ox eye\" Fluorite, though I have never seen anything like it before.
