Fluorspar powder is the powdered form of the mineral fluorite (calcium fluoride, CaF₂).

In industry it is supplied in different grades - for example “metallurgical grade”, “acid grade”, etc.

Typical uses include:

As a flux in steelmaking and foundries to lower the melting point of slags and improve impurity removal.
In the production of hydrofluoric acid (HF) and other fluorine-chemicals (acid grade).
In glass, ceramics, welding electrodes, and other industrial contexts.

Physical appearance: usually a white or off-white crystalline powder (depending on impurities) with very low solubility in water.
