Illinois fire with a metallic twist

Illinois fire with a metallic twist

A stunning Denton Mine fluorite lighting up with that signature purple-to-honey glow, stacked cubic growth creating a layered, architectural look. Backlit, the core burns golden while the outer zones hold that rich Illinois violet—pure Cave-In-Rock magic.

Scattered across the faces, brassy chalcopyrite pops with metallic sparkle, adding contrast and texture to an already dynamic piece. The interplay of color, light, and mineralization on this one is next level.

From the Denton Mine, Hardin County, Illinois—and carrying Ex. Garret Collection provenance, giving it that added collector pedigree.

Color, composition, and history all in one.
