The process occurs deep within the Earth and requires high temperatures, pressures, and, of course, time. It is one of the most abundant minerals in the Earth's crust. Fluorite, formed by the combination of the elements calcium and fluorine, has the formula CaF2 (calcium fluoride). It occurs in cubic, octahedral, and rhombic dodecahedral forms. It is a mineral that exhibits the physical properties of thermoluminescence and fluorescence (under ultraviolet light). In industry, fluorite is primarily used as a flux in iron and steel metallurgy. It is also used as a source of fluorine and hydrofluoric acid, in ceramic glazing, and in the manufacture of some types of optical glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Origin: Argentina\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rocas\u0026Cristales","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52535864852780,"sku":"PCUAAZU1109060","price":171526.0,"currency_code":"ARS","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0951\/9009\/0028\/files\/cuarzo-azucar-con-fluorita-verde-minerales-de-coleccion-1448862.jpg?v=1775148812"},{"product_id":"apofilita","title":"Apophyllite","description":"\u003cp\u003e Incredible collector's Apophyllite, with unique crystallizations, with cubic crystals up to 20 x 20 mm, with perfect finish and formation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e The stone measures 120 x 120 x 40 mm and weighs 550 grams.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e A unique specimen, worthy of being displayed in the finest collections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Apophyllite is a hydrated phyllosilicate of hydrothermal origin.
