1- Microscopic study:

Megascopic description:
It is colorless coarse crystalline fluorite almost free of staining material and colored impurities.

MICROSCOPIC EXAMINATION:
It is very coarse crystalline and discrete variety of fluorite. It is free of zoning and suffer of mild parting and fracturing. The examined sample does not show clear evidences of secondary cementation. However, the fluorite crystals contain abundant inclusions of finely disseminated quartz and feldspars. These inclusions do not exceed 2% by volume of the examined sample, and they can not be separated by the techniques used regularly for ore upgrading. This variety of fluorite can be considered as a very high grade and almost free of contamination.

2- X-Ray diffraction analysis:
The sample powder was analyzed by X-ray diffraction analysis using Cu Ka radiation at 38 Kv and 18mA. The obtained diffraction proves that fluorspar is the only mineral detected with its main d spacings at 1.93, 3.15 and 1.65 A^o with relative intensities 100,94 and 35 %, respectively, the sharp peaking of the obtained diffraction indicates the very high grade of crystallinity.
