Mined since around 1920, the Okorusu Mine is an open pit fluorite mine. The deposit is part of an alkaline igneous-carbonatite ring-dike complex where fluorite has replaced pegmatitic carbonatite. The mine is famous for producing outstanding blue and green fluorite crystals, often with phantoms. This specimen features a plate of greenish-blue cubic crystals of fluorite associated with a single, large, opaque barite crystal. Dimensions (cm): 9.5 H x 15 W x 4.5 D. Location: Okorusu Mine, Otjiwarongo District, Otjozondjupa Region, Namibia
