A group of richly zoned yellow and light purple fluorite with associated late-stage calcite and strontianite. There are also blade-like, partially dissolved sprays of a third mineral that is likely celestite. Etched lines on the surface of the larger calcite crystal are presumably from dissolution of celestite as well. One small cleave only on a fluorite near the edge. Mining date based on combination of minerals present and later specimen number in the Noll Collection. Charles Noll Collection #CN5055.
