Country of Origin: Argentina, Austria, Canada, England, France, Germany, USA 

General Information: Fluorite is considered to be one of most popular minerals in the world among gem and mineral collectors, second only to quartz. It is often referred to as 'the most colorful mineral in the world' owing to its variety of brilliant colors. 

Physical Properties: Fluorite is frequently fluorescent under ultraviolet UV light. The fluorescence is thought to be due to impurities of yttrium or other types of organic matter within the crystal lattice. The color of visible light emitted when a sample of fluorite is fluorescing appears to be highly dependent on where the specimen was collected.

Metaphysical properties: Many people believe fluorite has a calming effect on the body. Fluorite increases intuitive abilities, links the human mind to universal consciousness, and develops connection to Spirit. This stone stimulates the third eye chakra, throat and crown chakra.
