Green fluorite is a very popular mineral because of the magnificence of its color. It is a mineral which is used in the manufacture of jewelry and ornamental objects, widely used in lithotherapy.
For the record, metallurgists in the 16th century discovered that ores containing fluorite fluidized more quickly. Georgius Agricola (1494 - 1555), founder of mineralogy and metallurgy, already mentioned fluorite in his famous work Re Metallica.
In 1797, the naturalist Carlo Antonio Galeani Napione named this stone "fluere", meaning "melting" or "which melts". This name refers to the very low melting point of this stone. Thus, it has the ability to fuse with many elements. Subsequently, its name evolved into fluorine, then the gas which constitutes it took the name of fluorine. Moreover, in the Middle Ages, fluorite had the sweet name of “ore flower”.
Fluorite is a mineral very common throughout the world. It is found in hydrothermal deposits and in sedimentary rocks. It is composed of calcium fluoride with many industrial uses. It has a hardness of 4 on the Mohs scale, which makes it a relatively fragile mineral.
Fluorite crystals are generally cube-shaped and have various hues, ranging from green to blue, purple to pink, yellow to brown, etc. Pure, fluorite is colorless. These wonderful colors are due to the presence of various metals or organic compounds. There is multi-colored or rainbow fluorite. Moreover, some varieties are even fluorescent. Others change color depending on the light to which they are exposed.
Fluorite is mainly found in granite mines, sedimentary rocks or metamorphic rock mines (rocks having undergone mineralogical and structural transformations due to changes in temperature and/or pressure). Nowadays, the use of fluorite in jewelry and lithotherapy represents a tiny part of its exploitation. Although certain specimens are highly sought after by collectors, most of its production is primarily intended for the metallurgical and steel industry. It is used in the manufacture of hydrofluoric acid in the working of aluminum, in the production of enamel, lenses for astronomy, spectacle lenses, etc.
Fluorite is a stone known since Antiquity when certain civilizations believed that light had crystallized in this mineral.

In China, green fluorite sometimes replaced jade in the manufacture of ornamental objects or statuettes. Violet fluorite had the power to ward off bad luck.

In ancient Egypt, many jewelry, scarab-shaped amulets or statues bearing the effigy of various gods were made from fluorite.

The Greeks made their famous Murrhine vases from fluorite. These are extremely expensive and highly sought after vases made from murrhe. We now know that murrhe is in fact fluorite. Furthermore, this stone represented intelligence and know-how.

During archaeological excavations, fragments of fluorite, pearls, and some objects were discovered in the ruins of Pompeii, a city buried during the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD. The Romans used fluorite in making their glasses for drinking wine.

In the Middle Ages, fluorite was symbolically called “ore flower”.
Closer to us, in the 18th century, in England, a mine in the Sheffield region produced two-color fluorite. It was yellow and blue and bore the name "Blue John". This stone is extremely popular with collectors.
In France, in 1861, fluorite was used to manufacture the balustrades of the Opéra Garnier in Paris. Today, the majority of fluorite mines are closed.

The main deposits of fluorite are located in China, Madagascar, Canada, France, etc.
