While the San Antonio Mine in Chihuahua is famous for its raspberry-red botryoidal fluorite, the integration of yellow zones creates a multicolored aesthetic that is exceptionally rare for the East Camp. Geologically, these specimens are formed within carbonate replacement deposits where hydrothermal fluids rich in fluorine interact with limestone. The distinctive red and yellow hues are a direct result of varying trace elements and localized conditions during the crystal’s multi-stage growth period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003eThis \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"8\" data-index-in-node=\"5\"\u003eRed and Yellow Fluorite San Antonio Mine Mexico\u003c\/b\u003e specimen features a classic botryoidal habit, characterized by smooth, globular aggregates that exhibit a velvety or satin luster. The yellow portions typically appear as translucent cores or distinct bands, while the saturated red layers often form the outer crust. Many of these pieces are found in association with dogtooth calcite or mimetite, providing a sharp scientific contrast to the rounded fluorite shapes. Because the mine has experienced significant flooding in recent years, the availability of these specific multicolored specimens has become increasingly limited for mineral collectors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSpecimen Details:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/b\u003e Red and Yellow Fluorite\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eApproximate Size:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.5in x 1in x 3in\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eApproximate Weight:\u003c\/b\u003e 685g\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOrigin of Specimen:\u003c\/b\u003e San Antonio Mine, Chihuahua, Mexico\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNotes:\u003c\/b\u003e Please note that each specimen is completely unique.
