Purple fluorite, also known as fluorite, is a mineral composed of calcium fluoride. It is known for its wide range of vibrant colors, including various shades of purple. In Inner Mongolia, an autonomous region in northern China, purple fluorite is one of the minerals that can be found. This region is rich in mineral resources and has a number of fluorite deposits.

The purple color in fluorite is often due to the presence of hydrocarbon compounds or to radiation exposure, which causes color centers within the crystal structure. Purple fluorite is appreciated not only for its beauty but also for its significance in the gemstone and mineral collecting communities.
Collectors value phantom fluorite for both its aesthetic qualities and its rarity. Each piece is unique, with its own set of phantom layers that tell a story of the crystal’s geological history. These specimens are sought after for personal collections, educational purposes, and as stunning decorative pieces that bring the beauty of the natural world indoors.
