Purple Fluorite: What is it?

Purple fluorite is a very popular gem in the metallurgical industry because of its fast casting ability. This is the reason why its name is derived from Latin fluere, which means to flow. It is also used as a flux of iron and steel. It has a crystalline surface and is usually associated with quartz and calcite since its properties are similar.

It is also known as the “stone of genius”. Purple fluorite is one of the most important minerals for the human being due to its wide range of properties and uses, both in the spiritual and industrial context, as well as for its ability to flow under ultraviolet light.

During the 18th century it was ground in powder and mixed with water to treat kidney diseases. This may have been based on the fact that the ancient Roman believed that drinking alcoholic beverages from carved fluorite vessels would prevent drunkenness.
