We went rockhounding for fluorite in the Mojave Desert and the first signs were small clear crystals in a wash. After enough exposure to sunlight, fluorite, like most minerals, will lose its color. We scrambled up the hillside and found beautiful seems of emerald green fluorite. It was a good day digging.
Saturday, April 16 we will be in Lake Elsinore for the Lake Elsinore Gem and Mineral Society’s Annual Spring Show. We will have some fluorite obelisks and other gem, mineral, crystal treasures, along with Sherry’s beautiful stained-glass creations. Hope to see you there: 32097 Corydon Rd. 10 am to 4 pm.
