No, fluorite does not fizz when it comes in contact with hydrochloric acid like some other minerals. It does not contain carbonate ions that react with acid to produce bubbles of carbon dioxide gas. Fluorite is composed primarily of calcium and fluoride ions.
When iron comes into contact with hydrochloric acid, a chemical reaction occurs that results in the formation of hydrogen gas. The fizzing you observe is the release of this hydrogen gas as bubbles. The reaction between the iron and hydrochloric acid dissolves the iron, creating iron chloride as a byproduct.
Calcite will fizz and bubble when it comes in contact with hydrochloric acid due to its reaction with the acid, showing the property of effervescence. This reaction is a result of the release of carbon dioxide gas.
Yes, fluorite does react with hydrochloric acid (HCl) to produce hydrogen fluoride gas. This reaction can be observed by effervescence and the formation of a gas when fluorite is exposed to HCl.

Hydrogen chloride is a gas, Hydrochloric acid is the acid. ( difference is in solution )

Calcite mineral fizzes when it comes in contact with hydrochloric acid due to the reaction that produces carbon dioxide gas. This fizzing can be used as a simple test to identify calcite in geological samples.
CaCO3 + 2HCl --> CaCl2 + CO2 + H2O
make H2 gas........Mg+2HCl--->MgCl2+H2

Hydrochloric acid is both irritant and corrosive. It can cause irritation to the skin, eyes, and respiratory system upon contact. It is also corrosive to metals and can cause severe burns on contact with skin. Hydrochloric acid is not flammable.
No, hydrochloric acid is not flammable. It is a highly corrosive and strong acid that can cause burns upon contact with skin, but it does not ignite or burn in the presence of a flame.
Fluorite is not that rare but the purer forms referred to as "acid grade" are and most comes from China. It is required for manufacturing of fluorinated products such as PTFE
