Wonderful patterning and mixed hues, strong phosphorescence from Puttapa Mine, Australia. The bright
white areas are most likely all willemite; the white mineralization graded the highest percentage of zinc in all
these pieces. The bright green fluorescing color is also willemite – very phosphorescent.
The two primary
minerals in this piece are willemite and calcite, but we’re sure we will learn of more as further testing is done.
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.
