Bright blue Afghanite crystals atop a matrix. The blue-white fluorescence in the layered matrix appears to be massive diopside, mixed with massive phlogopite (fluorescent SW bright yellow/butterscotch). On both sides, there is calcite fluorescent red.
We prefer displaying this specimen under shortwave and longwave UV light as that makes each corresponding mineral pop, but they are respectable under any wavelength.
A major component of rock collecting (for us) is simply getting out in nature. A buddy dragged us out to a very remote area here in middle Tennessee to hunt for fluorescent green agate. Since we consider ourselves pure "Glow Hounds" we weren't anticipating any glow rocks, just the beauty of the area, but we brought our UV lights anyway.
