A striking combination of red fluorescent calcite and blue fluorite from the Pure Potential Mine in La Paz County, Arizona.

The Pure Potential Mine, also known as the North Geronimo Mine, is located north of Yuma, Arizona. No longer active, it is a former underground operation that produced lead, zinc, silver, molybdenum, vanadium and fluorspar. Specimen mining still takes place at the Pure Potential Mine under private claim.
