From the Latin, fluere = "to flow" (for its use as a flux). The term fluorescence is derived from fluorite, which will often markedly exhibit this effect. The element fluorine also derives its name from fluorite, a major source for the element. Fluorite is found as a common gangue mineral in hydrothermal veins, especially those containing lead and zinc minerals. It is also found in some greisens, granites and high-temperature veins, and as a component of some marbles and other metamorphic rocks. It is a highly useful mineral in industry for use as flux in metal processing because of the chemicals found in its composition. It is also valuable to mineral collectors for its symmetry and color. It is not very widely used as a gemstone because of its softness. Because of its softness, however, it is used for intricate carvings. Clear stones are valuable for use in optics.
