A cabinet sized specimen form a recent find of fluorite in Madagascar, certainly the best examples from the country found to date.

I first started seeing small amounts of this material in 2016, but it was not until last year that I saw well crystalized examples.  These display a degree of UV reactivity-- not quite as strong as the stuff from Rogerly, but the phenomenon is definitely present.  

At the moment these seem to be ridiculously undervalued-- you are getting a lot of bang for your buck.  Even the abundant Chinese fluorites would be much more expensive, for a piece of comparative quality.
