Named in 1797 by Carlo Antonio Galeani Napione from the Latin fluere to flow.  Used as a flux for smelting metals.  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 a mineral with a bouquet of brilliant colours.  Well known and prized for its glassy luster and rich variety of colours.  The range of common colours for fluorite starting from purple, then blue, green, yellow, colorless, brown and pink.  Then some more black and reddish orange is amazing and is only rivaled in colour range by quartz.  The most striking color is rainbow Fluorite which is hard to come by.  Intermediate pastels between the previously mentioned colours are also possible.  It is easy to see why fluorite earns the reputation as “The Most Colourful Mineral in the World”.
