Pink to red rhodonite crystals with red-orange fluorescing calcite, green fluorescing willemite. The pink rhodonite crystals on this specimen are rich and lustrous in color with calcite between the crystals. On the matrix is black, metallic franklinite crystals as well.
This is a classic mineral combination from Franklin, New Jersey. An extremely beautiful specimen, it is uncommon to find rhodonite this rich from Franklin.
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.
