    Description

    Up for bid is beautiful piece of "Root Beer" Fluorite with Celestine from the Edward Kraemer & Sons Quarry (AKA White Rock Quarry) in Clay Center, Ohio. The Fluorite fluoresces a cream color under all wavelengths of UV light and has a long lasting phosphorescence. There are also interesting zoning to the crystals that can be seen under UV light.
    The root beer color of the fluorite and the non-fluorescent Celestine blades make this an excellent daylight specimen as well. The last major find of this "Root Beer" Fluorite was in 2008 and the material sold out fairly quickly. I got this piece out of an old collection last year.

    Location: Edward Kraemer & Sons Quarry (White Rock Quarry), Clay Center, Ohio

    Shipping
    I use Fed Exp Ground for most of my domestic shipping. I only charge actual shipping costs with no extra charges for packing or shipping materials. I think I finally have combined shipping working on eBay. The automatic invoice from eBay should now have the correct shipping amount. If you see any problems with the shipping amount please let me know.
